Zach Lowe: I don’t think this is going to be fast. I don’t know that it will ever really happen. But I know that the whole league is ready now to reengage on Durant. -via Spotify / November 5, 2022
According to ESPN’s NBA guru Adrian Wojnarowski, it is very much possible that KD ends up jumping ship in the near future (h/t ClutchPoints on Twitter): “The concern certainly in Brooklyn is: How long does Kevin Durant hang in there with the losing, with the instability right now? … You can imagine a scenario where Kevin Durant perhaps revisits his request from the summer at some point. Although, I don’t believe that’s a consideration right now for him.” -via Clutch Points / November 5, 2022
