News that Kevin Durant is leaving the Brooklyn Nets in a blockbuster trade sent fans into a frenzy Thursday.
« That is insane, » one fan, Joe Brooks, told NPR. « I can’t believe that they actually did it. You know, this is probably the best player that the Brooklyn Nets have ever had in their franchise history. »
Following the news, Brooks, a Philadelphia-based attorney and longtime Nets fan, tweeted a photo of seven of his jerseys, including three Durant jerseys.
« It was a tough pill to swallow this morning to say the least, » Brooks said.
The Brooklyn Nets traded Durant, along with forward, T.J. Warren, to the Phoenix Suns, according to multiple outlets, including the Associated Press and ESPN. The Suns will be the fourth NBA franchise for the 34-year-old Durant, who previously played for the Seattle SuperSonics/Oklahoma City Thunder and the Golden State Warriors.
