For all that has changed around the NBA since Kevin Durant asked out of Brooklyn one month ago, there has been no real movement on the trade front.
Initial reports tied Durant to the Heat and Suns, whose title odds shortened accordingly, and the Raptors are also viewed as a potential trade partner if the price is right. The Celtics joined those teams as a potential Durant suitor, according to multiple reports, and have accordingly leapt to title favorites at SI Sportsbook.
Boston lost the 2022 NBA Finals to the Warriors, Durant’s former team, in six games in June.
