With free agency just a couple of days away, the Nets are prepared to lose both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.
“The Nets are putting out there right now that they are prepared to lose both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant,” he said Monday. “They’d rather lose them both than go through what they went through last season, which was a miserable season under the situation that Kyrie Irving contributed to creating.”
Irving has until Wednesday to make a decision on his $36.9 million player option for the 2022–23 season and if he were to leave the team, it may prompt Durant to seek a trade.
