Adrian Wojnarowski: Nets are 'focused on trying to find a Kevin Durant deal'

The Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving trade rumors continued into the third week of July on Monday with both superstars still currently on the Brooklyn Nets roster.

ESPN insider Adrian Wojnarowski appeared on "Get Up" Monday morning to give the latest update.

ESPN's Brian Windhorst said last week that there was a very real possibility that both "KD" and "Uncle Drew" start the 2022-2023 season in Brooklyn. Irving opted into his $37 million player option three weeks ago and three days later, Durant requested a trade.

It is been reported on numerous occasions in the last week-plus that the Nets were prioritizing a Durant deal, with Irving talks stalling. The former No. 2 overall pick out of Texas has four years remaining on his current contract and will turn 34 in September.
