NBA trading rumors: Durant may return to the Eastern Conference to join the 76ers with a net worth of over $55 million

Entering the offseason, Kevin Durant is one of the stars who many people speculate about a possible transfer this summer. Recent developments suggest he may return to the Eastern Conference to join forces with another superstar.

In the latest ESPN mock draft, Jonathan Givoni also talked about what he heard in the league. When he analyzed the third-ranked Philadelphia 76ers, he reported on the team's idea of ​​packaging their star choices. One of the possible targets of the 76ers is Durant.

Some teams expect 76ers to actively participate in the deal negotiations, such as Kevin Durant (Suns) and Laurie Markkanen (Utah) are potential trading targets, which may include Paul George and the third pick. Daryl Morey, the president of basketball operations at 76ers, has had a very positive career in trading, but historically, it is rare to see the top three picks traded. ”

It is certainly an interesting scene, as Joel Embiid will find himself with a new star partner Durant. After a 2025 season plagued by injuries, the $55.2 million center is eager to get back to form next season. If he can do that, and under the pinch of KD and Tellis Maxi, Philadelphia can immediately return to the prominent position in the East.

Arizona radio host teased the idea of ​​Suns for Durant for Paul George, considering his big contract and injury history, the Suns use Kai文·杜兰特换保罗·乔治将是一场赌博。在打破这个想法时，两位亚利桑那州的电台主持人谈到了一个场外原因，为什么凤凰城应该远离这样的举动。

尽管太阳经历了所有的变化，他们仍然把德文·布克作为球队的支柱。正因为如此，罗恩·沃尔夫利和卢克·拉宾斯基认为引进一个他多年来一直有问题的球员对他来说是一种侮辱。

拉宾斯基说：“嘿，布克，你知道你在这里是多么忠诚，在我们重新设定这一切的时候，你会留下来的。 "We're going to bring in the only person in the league that you don't seem to like, and you're going to be teammates." That would be great. ”

As George recently spent his career in the West, he and Booker met on countless occasions. In a game in January 2021, the two had a fierce confrontation. When Booker tried to protect the rim in a fast break, he gave George a foul. The two collided together while getting up, resulting in PG giving the Suns star a quick push. The offseason is still in its early stages and no one knows whether Booker and Kevin Durant’s collaboration will continue, or whether the star guard will find a new running mate in 2026.
