As soon as the Brooklyn Nets’ season was over, several trade rumors started doing the rounds. While there are still uncertainties about Kyrie, and Durant’s future in the Nets, Kyrie cleared the air. Kyrie said that he doesn’t have a plan to play anywhere else. And said that he and KD will work closely with the front office to build a strong team.
