Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are crucial to the Brooklyn Nets’ championship ambitions this season. However, some developments in Kyrie’s personal life led to the spark of his trade rumors.

Some trusted sources had revealed that it was Kevin Durant who was stopping a trade from happening initially. However, some more information has come up that could hint at Kevin Durant giving the green light for Kyrie’s trade. Nevertheless, those sources could be wrong as a picture has gone viral of the duo, enjoying their leisure time in the courts of the Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Latest on the Kyrie Irving trade rumors

Earlier in September, it was reported amidst the Ben Simmons trade saga that Kyrie Irving could be a potential part of a package the Nets are preparing to trade for Simmons. However, sources said it was Kevin Durant who stopped the Nets’ front office from including Kyrie Irving in that package. Consequently, this prevented a deal from even being discussed.

What does this mean for the Brooklyn Nets?

The duo showcasing powerful chemistry shows that there is no internal rift that is causing these trade rumors. For the Nets, this is a good sign for keeping the trio (including James Harden) together in the franchise. While Kyrie‘s personal choices have nothing to do with how well he can contribute on the court, it is hampering the team‘s ability to practice.
