Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant could be a trade target for the Washington Wizards, according to Sam Amico of Hoops Wire. It would be a stretch, because despite the fact that Washington is his hometown, Durant has never indicated that he was interested in playing for the Wizards.
So why would the Wizards be a trade target, at least for the Nets? As Amico wrote, “the Nets aren’t determined to trade Durant to he Suns or Heat. They’ll trade him to … [a] non-playoff team if it means they get what they want in return.
