NBA Draft Lottery delivered plenty of chaos, including the Dallas Mavericks jumping up 10 spots to No. 1. Now, the trade floodgates open.
While Durant is reportedly “very interested” in playing in Houston, the Rockets have their doubts about acquiring the Phoenix Suns star — mostly due to his age, according to The Athletic.
One reason the Nets figure to be active ahead of the draft is that they currently have four picks in the first round this year. Their own is at No. 8 overall, plus three others at 19 (via Milwaukee Bucks), 26 (via New York Knicks) and 27 (via Houston Rockets).
