Looks like there’s a lot going on in the world of NBA Futures.
Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving would have played in just 44 games in three seasons as teammates if one or both are traded. Now following Kevin Durant’s official trade request out of Brooklyn, most assume their time playing together is all but over. With the Lakers NBA title odds adjustment in mind, below are Irving’s “Next NBA Team” odds via DraftKings.
James & Co. are the odds on favorite for his services (-125), which would in all likelihood mean Russell Westbrook would be done in Los Angeles.
See Kyrie’s next team odds below:
Odds for Kyrie Irving’s next team, per @DraftKings:

Everything suggests the seven-time All-Star is heading to the Lakers, it might just be a question of what the Nets can get in return.
