All summer, the NBA has revolved around Kevin Durant. Now, it may need a new planet to rotate around.
Recently, it was announced that Durant intends to stay with the Brooklyn Nets. It’s entirely possible that this relationship will go south again. Permanent damage may have been done. Still, for the time being, it looks like Durant will enter into 2022-23 as a Net.
It was an unexpected development with major implications. A Durant trade would have shocked the world, but now, it’s the trade that didn’t happen that’s poised to shock the world instead.
If Durant is standing pat, it feels likely that Kyrie Irving will as well. That doesn’t preclude the Nets from making a move this summer.
