Anthony Edwards sent KD and Jokic home last year, on the verge of sending LeBron and Luka home right now. He walked them down yesterday, the NBA’s newest giant slayer sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/th… – 11:07 AM

You have to believe now that Giannis will seriously reevaluate his future this offseason. KD, Zion and Ja could also be on the move.
The Rockets say publicly they want to keep their young core intact. That will be put to the test this summer. – 12:10 AM

If what we fear is true Damian Lillard at 34 years old has a tough comeback. Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson have both recovered but both were 30 years old when the injury happened. Track record on older players is tough – 10:04 PM

Ant knocked off Durant and Jokic last year. He’s two wins away from adding LeBron and Luka to the list this year. Not many 24-year-olds in NBA history with a resume like that. – 12:30 AM

More on this storyline
But even if the Rockets do express interest in KD, don’t expect the Suns to prioritize getting their picks back above all else. Getting this year’s pick, which will likely fall in the top 10? A source said that’s obviously something that would be attractive to Phoenix. But as for their picks in 2027 and 2029? That may not hold the same relevance to this front office as it would for the fanbase. -via gophnx.com / April 26, 2025
Chandler Parsons: It’s going to be hard to jump over Bird, KD, and LeBron. Michelle Beadle: Does anybody have him jumping over Bird? Lou Williams: He can jump over guys if you add championships. DeMarcus Cousins: No. Let’s not do this. No. Beadle: Not even a little? Cousins: No. Williams: Yes, he can. Cousins: No. Larry Bird? No. Parsons: I don’t want that smoke. I give him maybe Pippen. Beadle: Why wouldn’t you put him over Pippen? Kawhi Leonard’s been the guy on a championship team. Parsons: Just availability, I suppose, is the only flaw. Beadle: Okay, but when he’s there… Williams: Why is Larry Bird untouched? Why is Larry Bird an untouchable in this conversation? I’m not challenging nothing about Larry Bird. I’m asking why is he an untouchable in this conversation when we’re throwing out LeBron James, Kevin Durant…We’re throwing out so many people, but when it comes to Larry Bird, you’re all shutting down, I don’t understand. Parsons: Three time champ, two-time NBA finals MVP, three-time MVP, 12 time All-Star… Williams: You don’t have to tell me, I know exactly who Larry Bird is. Parsons: Nine-time first team. Lary Bird is even a three-time all-defensive team. Cousins: Can we not do this? Williams: Then Larry Bird is number one then, right? Based on your logic. Cousins: No. It’s LeBron James, then Larry Bird. -via YouTube / April 25, 2025
Amid no shortage of leaguewide wonderment about the future Hall of Famer’s future in Phoenix and how much longer he’ll remain a Sun, Durant and business partner Rich Kleiman shook up the pickleball world Saturday when they swapped franchise naming rights with the D.C. Pickleball Team in the nation’s capital. Durant and Kleiman previously co-owned Major League Pickleball’s Brooklyn Aces. Durant, though, is among the most famed sporting representatives from the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. The trade thus enabled Durant and Kleiman to take charge of The DMV’s Major League Pickleball franchise. -via marcstein.substack.com / April 23, 2025
