As time goes by, and the more uncertain Kevin Durant’s departure seems. If the player wishes to leave the Nets quickly, the offers are not abundant, or not to the taste of its leaders, which pushes some to consider an additional season for the No. 7 in Brooklyn. But his brother Tony quickly put the dots on the “i”.
Kevin Durant is the star of this early summer in the NBA, and not necessarily for the right reasons. While he should have been at the heart of the news and debates for his sporting success with the Nets, who were the big favorites for the title a few months ago, he finds himself in all the rumors following his surprising trade request. After just three seasons, KD has seen enough in Brooklyn, he wants a new challenge.
The question now is to know where, since the teams that can afford it are not numerous. He would like to join Devin Booker and the Suns as a priority, possibly the Heat, and that’s regarding it. And if according to several specialists the Raptors have the best package to offer, the multiple All-Star might refuse to commit to it because… of the few African Americans in Toronto.

So inevitably, the more time passes, the more likely it is that No. 7 will stay one more season in Brooklyn. The leaders are also beginning to act with this hypothesis in mind, as evidenced by the signing of the coveted TJ Warren for the minimum. But on Instagram, Kevin Durant’s brother put the dots on the “i”: the Brooklyn chapter is completely closed.

Tony Durant : Heiiiiiiin, Skip, what’s wrong with you?
Tony Durant isn’t thrilled regarding his brother staying another season in Brooklyn, and he made that pretty clear when responding to the Skip Bayless hypothesis. KD has made the rounds in the Big Apple, and the tensions with its leaders are far too great to forget. Even if he stayed, he wouldn’t be 100% in the project.
And it may be a strategic mistake on his part, since with another big season and a year less on his contract, it would be much easier for him to find a new competitive franchise. In the current state of things, Phoenix will undoubtedly have to mortgage its present and its future to afford the n°7, which obviously explains the long negotiations and the reluctance of certain leaders.
Even though Nets executives are preparing for a future with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, the two players do not seem to have changed their minds, especially the No. 7. His brother immediately dismissed the idea of an extra year in the Big Apple.
