It s lively! A total of 7 teams, the Rockets and Suns joined the team, and the largest deal in NBA history was born?

NBA is about to witness history! ——According to the latest report by TA reporter Fred Katz, Kevin Durant’s trade negotiations have been upgraded to a seven-team deal that could set an NBA record, involving the Rockets, Suns, Hawks, Nets, Warriors, Lakers and Timberwolves.

If finally reached, it will surpass the scale of Klay Thompson's six-team deal last year and become the largest deal in league history. Sources revealed that the core part of the deal is still centered around Durant for Jaylen Green + Dillon Brooks, but the Suns and the Rockets hope to pull more teams into negotiations to optimize salary structure and asset allocation. The five players known to be involved include:

Durant (Suns → Rockets)

Jaylen Green (Rockets → Suns)

Dillon Brooks (Rockets → Suns)

Clint Capela (Hawks → Rockets)

In addition, draft pick compensation and other player swaps are still under discussion, and the transaction is expected to be officially completed this Thursday.

Why do 7 teams need to trade? Labor-capital agreements are the key, and the NBA's salary matching rules and trading special restrictions make multi-team trading necessary. For example:

Hawks hope to send Capela away in exchange for future assets or young players.

The Nets may take over the draft pick or contract match the player as a third party.

The Warriors may use the transaction to clear up the salary space and pave the way for subsequent operations.

Lakers and Timberwolves may serve as "salary transfer stations" to help other teams complete transactions

At present, the largest deal in NBA history is the six-team deal in which Klay Thompson was sent to the Mavericks in 2024, and the previous five-team deal in Westbrook's exchange for Paul was also sensational. If the Durant trade ends up involving seven teams, a new league record will be set.

For the Rockets, winning Durant means all his strength to hit the championship. Although he is 36 years old, he still contributed 26.6 points + 6 rebounds + 4.2 assists last season, with a shooting percentage of 53.7%. The Suns have officially entered reconstruction mode, with Jaylen Green and Booker becoming the team's new core and accumulating future draft picks.

NBA history is on the verge of rewriting when the fates of seven teams are intertwined in one trade. Thursday, is it a time to witness history, or is it a regret of a miscarriage in transactions? The basketball world is waiting for breath!
