Durant to Houston in 3-team trade


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 2027 first 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.

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.
