Fans are speculating that the Nets might attempt to let go KD and PG Kyrie Irving after their failed experiment in Brooklyn.
It has been noted that Durant is signed to a massive contract through the 2025-26 season. There have been rumors going around about Kevin Durant’s future with the Nets. The trio of Durant, Irving and James Harden turned out to be disastrous. Irving has a player option for next season and could choose to opt-out if Durant forces a trade.

As for the Blazers, they appear ready to go all-in to try and make Lillard Dame happy. Portland has a handful of stars that could help make a swap deal for Durant. The Blazers also have the cap space at this point.
It has also been noted that Portland just traded for Jerami Grant from the Detroit Pistons and selected Shaedon Sharpe with the No. 7 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft on Thursday night.
