Jack Settleman reports that the Philadelphia 76ers enter the race for Durant and prepare the package that includes Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey, Matisse Thybule, and multiple picks.

Settleman adds that 76ers star Joel Embiid is making a strong push to get Durant to Philadelphia.

According to Chris Haynes from Yahoo Sports, Durant's preferred destination is the Phoenix Suns. The Miami Heat are also among preferred destinations, but according to Adrian Wojnarowski, the Nets plan to move Durant where they can get the best possible deal.

Wojnarowski adds that the entire Nets roster will be available to discuss in deals, and Brooklyn will look for a historical return on players and draft picks.

Durant still has a 4-year $192.4 million contract, which runs after the 2025-26 season.

Last season, Durant averaged 29.9 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 6.4 assists in 55 regular-season games.
