With James Harden on the verge of making a shock move to the Philadelphia 76ers, the Brooklyn Nets will lose a major star. One-third of Brooklyn’s big-3, Harden seems to be moving to a new franchise very soon. One person who will feel disappointed in particular, is 33-year-old Kevin Durant. And now, KD has dropped a major hint about his feelings, in a massive dig at Harden.
The trio of Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving looked set to take the league by storm.
