Kevin Durantās sweepstakes were the biggest story in the NBA offseason. His desire to leave the Brooklyn Nets right after signing a huge contract extension with them was a major surprise, but the outcome wasnāt.
The Nets set an asking price that was just impossible to meet. No team was willing to give up everything they asked in return for Durantās four-year contract, so he had no choice but to change his mind and stay.
Durant was linked to a potential return to the Bay area to play for the Golden State Warriors again. Thatās why Stephen Curry recently shared his true thoughts on him and teaming up again in the future.
NBA News: Stephen Curry Was Never Hesitant About A KD Reunion
āThere was a conversation internally amongst us about āIf he was available, would you?ā Every team has those conversations, and obviously in our situation, theyāre gonna call me and ask me, āHow do you feel about it?ā I was never hesitant,ā Curry told Rolling Stone. āThe idea of playing with KD and knowing who he is as a person, from our history in those three years, I think KDās a really good dude.ā
āif anybodyās saying that you wouldnāt entertain that conversation ā no disrespect to anybody on our team ā but you donāt know how things work. But you also understand, like, if we run this thing back, Iāve got complete confidence in my team that we can win it again, as constructed,ā Curry added.āSo, all those things were true. And it started with me wanting to play with KD at the beginning. Yeah, itās about winning, itās about having fun, playing the game of basketball. And that was part of the reaction of, like, āYeah, itād beamazing.ā What does that actually mean?ā
Curry and KD werenāt the closest of friends, but they always got along. Also, theyāre two of the most disruptive offensive forces in NBA history, so obviously, teaming up gives them another big shot at winning a championship.
Still, the Warriors are stacked as it is, and they wouldnāt want to jeopardize their future by trading all their assets for another title run with KD. So, unfortunately, this reunion may never happen.
