Nets, Suns not close to Kevin Durant deal

From from my understanding, the Kevin Durant/Phoenix conversations have also been pretty far apart in terms of Phoenix wanting to be pretty, pretty minimal about what they returned back for Kevin Durant, frankly, like they don’t want to wreck their their franchise’s future.

Charles Boozer. Tony Durant. Joel Bosh. Abraham Millsap. Terry Harris. And now Bryton Hobbs, Jayson Tatum’s cousin. The annual summer league nepotism tradition is alive and well 👍👍👍 – 8:07 PM NBA Math @NBA_Math

Not much to take from the Nets’ first summer league practice. Adam Caporn said he hasn’t addressed the uncertainty surrounding Kevin Durant or Kyrie Irving with the team. Cam Thomas texted with Durant last week but kept the conversation private. – 4:13 PM CBS NBA @CBSSportsNBA

📅 On this day in 2016, the @Golden State Warriors officially announced the signing of coveted free agent Kevin Durant.
In Durant’s three seasons in Oakland, he averaged 25.8/7.1/5.4 in the regular season and 29.6/7.1/4.5 in the postseason. He won two NBA titles and two Finals MVP Awards. pic.twitter.com/tzE2KH1QFf – 12:01 PM Anthony Chiang @Anthony_Chiang

More on this storyline

Nets Daily: “All conversations are open for teams to call, reach out, submit offers. Teams like Suns, Heat, Raptors, Warriors,” Shams told Bally Sports. “Those are among the teams that are gonna be at the forefront trying to pursue a Kevin Durant deal.” The Warriors? -via Twitter @NetsDaily / July 8, 2022 Vincent Goodwill: I’ve heard varying degrees of what Brooklyn wants (for Kevin Durant), like some some executives have thrown out some craziness. They said Brooklyn is asking for too much. You know, they want an All-Star player, a starter plus draft picks. -via Spotify / July 8, 2022 Yahoo Sports and TNT sideline reporter Chris Haynes said on his “Posted Up” podcast that Durant had “gone dark,” not responding to other NBA stars who had been reaching out to him in the past week to touch base and gauge his interest in being traded to their teams. In essence, Durant has largely gone underground. “I texted him last week; that’s the last time I talked to him,” Thomas said. “I haven’t talked to him since, though.” -via New York Post / July 8, 2022
