Durant traded to Houston in three team deal including Denver


SUCCESS

Durant gets traded to his most likely destination in a 3 team deal. Houston gives up the usual mocked package of Green, Jabari and Whitmore. Suns also get back their own 2025 and 2027 firsts and a 2030 Rockets first. The third team is subject to change but I wanted it to be a player in the 6 million range to make things work financially. Denver made sense to me for their lack of draft capital since they walk out of this with a second round pick. Saric likely accepts his player option wherever he goes. Denver also gets Nate Williams for it all to make sense financially.

Phoenix obviously accepts both Cam's and Jabari's team option.

Houston manages to get Durant and takes advantage of today's market giving away only three firsts.

Still not 100% happy with the choice of the third team but it will most likely be something alng those lines. A franchise with low capital looking to add an extra pick and maybe dump some salary in the process.

Houston declining VanVleets team option could make this easier financially making this a two-team but I just don't see them doing that.
