They are definitely impressive numbers, but that’s in Washington, where his role is much different than it would be on the Nets. He had a solid year for the Wizards last season, where he averaged 17.1 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 3.5 assists while shooting over 45% from the field. The Kyle Kuzma proposal is an interesting one. Cam Thomas or Day’Ron Sharpe, someone like that would be a draw for the Wizards.”ĭeveney’s proposal saw them parting with Seth Curry and Cam Thomas in exchange for Kuzma. They like their young guys but let’s face it, the clock on this team is running short, and they need to win now. And Brooklyn, I don’t think they’re done. Kyle’s still fairly young (27), and that has appeal for a team like Dallas. They can give up an unprotected pick for him and match up the salaries. Dallas is just trying to get better players across the board. But that could be a Coby White destination. The Bulls are, again, in the market for depth at the position so there is a possibility, though they do not want to mess with the luxury tax either.

They didn’t trade Durant or Irving, but one NBA executive believes the team may seek to add another player for its run this season and linked a forward from the Washington Wizards to the team. While their team looks to be set at the moment, it’s already been reported that the Nets are believed to be likely to trade either Seth Curry or Joe Harris at this season’s trade deadline. If they look to need veteran help in their frontcourt, both Dwight Howard and Hassan Whiteside have been names swirling around the Nets franchise. They were said to be interested in adding a veteran center, but that looks to be on hold to give Nic Claxton and Day’Ron Sharpe a chance as well as the awaited Ben Simmons at center minutes. Neither star was traded, and their roster is coming into place. The looming questions over the Brooklyn Nets and their superstars Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant appear to be over, and the team is going to try to make a run for a championship in the upcoming 2022-23 NBA season.
