I wanna be in a place that’s stable and try to build a championship culture…we came to a mutual agreement that we should keep moving forward.” When asked if he was surprised that he was still with the Nets, Durant said, “I know I’m that good that you’re not going to just give me away.” Kevin Durant, and the Brooklyn Nets, will be eager to change their fortunes and win the title in the upcoming 2022-2023 season.
