Kevin Durant's offseason has been this. The Boston Celtics have been at the epicentre of all the trade

rumours that have dominated headlines recently (whether they wanted to be or not). There have been numerous

rumours suggesting possible deals Boston might present for Durant, all of which involve Jaylen Brown in them.

What the Celtics would have to give up in exchange for Durant, however, has rapidly been a matter of

discussion. According to early reports from Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Nets want Marcus Smart

in response to the Celtics' offer of Derrick White. And based on that and all subsequent reporting, it appears

that Brown would most likely be included in a trade for Durant along with one of Boston's best guards.

The consensus appears to be that the Celtics would have to include at least one of its top guards,

despite the fact that Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe revealed last week that Boston never truly put Brown

on the table. While Jayson Tatum and Brown are certainly top-tier wings, their depth at the guard position is

unmatched in terms of talent. And that's probably why supporters of a potential Durant deal have looked

so at ease with the prospect of parting with one of them. The Celtics would still

have Malcolm Brogdon and Payton Pritchard in the rotation even if White or Smart were moved.
