There is a list of US cities for which Durant has played in the past and the names are crossed after he moved on to other teams. Earlier, Durant used to play for the Oklahoma City Thunder and then was signed by the Golden State Warriors. The last city crossed in the list is San Francisco, where the Warriors team is based. It only means one thing that Kevin Durant will now move on from the Warriors team too.
Kevin Durant in Brooklyn Nets
As speculated, Kevin Durant finally signed with one of the New York teams, and shockingly it was the Brooklyn Nets. As the New York Knicks couldn’t convince Kyrie Irving, Durant went with the Nets, so that they can play together.

With DeMarcus Cousins also planning to leave the team, there is a lot of responsibility on Stephen Curry. Although the Warriors got D’Angelo Russel from the Nets, it is expected that he will be traded out soon. Durant going to the Nets has shaken up things for the Warriors and the Knicks.
