Meanwhile, Durant’s future looms large: while the Rockets aren’t actively trading him, rumors swirl that Boston could swoop in with a bold deal—sending White, Hauser, Scheierman, and a future pick for Durant—to instantly elevate both teams. If Durant stays, Houston leans into Alperen Sengun and a healthier roster; if he leaves, the West could shake up dramatically.
