The Sixers are trading Al Horford and a first-round and second-round pick to the Thunder for Danny Green, sources tell ESPN. The Sixers are sending a lightly-protected 2025 first-round pick and the 34th overall pick in tonight's draft, sources tell ESPN. The Thunder are also sending Terrance Ferguson to the Sixers with Green.

Bogdan Bogdanovic’s sign-and-trade to the Bucks is in jeopardy after the Kings guard never agreed to join Milwaukee, per Sam Amick.

Houston is trading Trevor Ariza and the No. 16 pick tonight to Detroit for a future first-round pick, sources tell ESPN. The deal gives the Rockets - a hard-capped team -- the freedom to use their mid-level exception in free agency.

Kevin Durant wants James Harden Nets trade but Kyrie Irving doesn’t, per Chris Broussard

James Harden and Kevin Durant want to team up on the Brooklyn Nets, but Kyrie Irving may not be interested in having The Beard in town.

According to Chris Broussard on FS1’s “The Herd,” that’s what people around the NBA are saying.

If the Nets acquire James Harden, Kyrie Irving would be the third option on offense behind the 2018 MVP and Kevin Durant. Uncle Drew has never been the third-best player on a team, so that would be a huge adjustment for him to make.

There’s also the fact that Harden’s old coach, Mike D’Antoni, is on the Nets staff as Steve Nash’s assistant. D’Antoni has called Harden the most dominant offensive player in NBA history, meaning Harden is probably going to have the ball in his hands a lot more than Irving should the Rockets and Nets agree to a trade.

Durant is such a gifted shooter that he can play off the ball a lot. While Irving is a good shooter as well, he does most of his damage with the ball in his hands. With that being said, you can understand why Irving is hesitant about the Nets trading for Harden, who has led the NBA in scoring the last three seasons.

Brooklyn is going to contend for the title next season whether the franchise acquires Harden or not since Durant and Irving are two superstars who have won titles. Kyrie and Harden are friends off the court, but Irving may not enjoy playing with Harden, who is as ball-dominant as they come in the NBA.


If this is to be believed with the vocal agreement to send Harden to Brooklyn, we are in for a very messy season. I love the Brooklyn trainwreck.


If Harden ends up in Brooklyn, I know for sure who my least favourite team in the NBA will be...

The first OKC trade where they haven’t won. In fact, depending on which version of Horford we’ll see, they might’ve been slightly robbed.

An expected top 3 in a weird order, but I’m really happy that the Bulls drafted Pat Will. I think I’ll watch some Bulls games for the first time in years. A wholesome squad.

Sixers making all the right moves. Getting Richardson might be good in the long run for Dallas too. I really liked him on that pre-Butler Heat team.

Reports of Klay injuring his achilles. I wanted to see GSW put together another run, sucks to see :/

Have no idea about this years draft, haven't paid too much attention.

The early "optimistic" reports saying he might not miss the entire season. That's terrible. And yeah, apart from the Durant years, I quite liked watching GSW, it'd be fun to see another run before Curry is too old.
