These are the two teams that are joining the race for Kevin Durant with force

Constant speculations and an endless soap opera are what lies ahead regarding Kevin Durant in the coming months, but the existing NBA rumors about his possible new destination provide clear hints of what we might expect. Lakers, Mavs, Spurs, and Timberwolves have been some of the candidates that have been mentioned, but there are two teams with serious chances of gaining ground in this rivalry, such as Houston Rockets and Miami Heat.

There are truly utopian and challenging scenarios surrounding Kevin Durant, but nothing can be ruled out in a market that is completely crazy. A superstar of KD's caliber available for a change of scenery is a ticking time bomb that can explode in any direction. The latest NBA rumors distance him from franchises that were initially in the mix, making room for two teams with the flexibility and willingness to secure his signing.

Indeed, Houston Rockets aims to give a boost to their project and is willing to sacrifice some of their young pieces to attract KD. There is an immense accumulation of talent in the Texan franchise, with Sengun as the only untouchable element on the team. Durant would arrive at a team with its own identity and where he would have full offensive freedom, given the defensive hounds that would work to make him comfortable.

Regarding the option of Miami Heat, it is worth noting how attractive it is for any team to be based in the city of Florida and be led by a legend like Spoelstra. The Heat are a wounded giant, eager to make a disruptive move in the market that would allow them to once again compete for glory.
