The Brooklyn Nets are in a tough spot as they look to figure out what to do with their star duo of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. They know Durant wants out and that Irving was looking for a sign-and-trade before he didn’t have many options other than opting in to stay with Brooklyn.
Therefore, the Nets have to decide to just make a trade for both players so both sides can move on or they keep the stars and try to play nice until the best offer for both materializes.
After all, Nets legend Richard Jefferson suggested that Durant stay with Brooklyn and try to work it out just as Kobe Bryant once did with the Los Angeles Lakers.
With that being said, it’s always fun to see some mock trades and see what the Nets can get for Durant. The latest fake trade comes from Bleacher Report and it sends the 2-time Finals MVP to the Denver Nuggets in a 3-team trade that includes the Houston Rockets.
