Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are the most integral part of the Brooklyn Nets roster this season. The duo has the ability to bring the NBA title to the city for the first time. Durant has already won two championships with Golden State Warriors and is looking forward to winning his first with the Nets this season. The Nets have assembled a ‘super team’ for this season and are one of the title contenders this season.

However, Kyrie Irving’s future at Brooklyn Nets is still hanging. Irving was crucial last season for the Nets as they reached the conference semis. However, he wasn’t part of the Nets squad that played Milwaukee Bucks in the preseason game.

With a big question mark looming over Kyrie’s future in Brooklyn, many trade rumors have emerged. Many teams have reportedly shown interest in singing Irving this season. Now, according to a recent report, Kevin Durant has given his green signal to the Nets to trade Irving.

“James Harden is a baller. They don’t want all of this other stuff. They want to hoop, and I’m hearing as of last night at 11:30 p.m, I was on the phone with some people, and I was told, ‘Yo, don’t think for one second that Kevin Durant won’t eventually give Brooklyn the OK to move this brother if it continues to be on the path that it is’. Don’t think he’s so married to Kyrie Irving that he’s just gonna tolerate all of this other stuff.”

Kevin Durant is one of the biggest stars in the NBA right now. And it’s fair to assume that he has a lot of say in case the Brooklyn Nets decide to trade Kyrie Irving. However, there’s no concrete report on the Nets trying to find a suitor for Kyrie. But Stephen A. reveals that Durant might use his leverage and demand a trade for Kyrie Irving.

Seven-time NBA All-Star Kyrie Irving averaged 26.9 PPG last season and everyone knows how good he is. Irving’s departure could be an enormous blow to Brooklyn Nets’ championship hopes.

But if Kevin Durant demands a trade for him, then the Nets might eventually give in. The Nets would want to handle this kind of situation properly so that it doesn’t come back to haunt them. It’ll be interesting to see how this all pans out in the coming days.
