Blackpool Combat Club Will Not Be Trading For Kevin Durant As He Hasn’t Bled With The Right People
Ahead of NBA Free Agency on June 30, Kevin Durant reportedly requested a trade from the Brooklyn Nets.
The Durant saga began with Kyrie Irving maybe wanting to be traded, possibly declining his $37 million player option with the Nets and sign a cheaper deal elsewhere, and eventually opting in to his player option and wanting to continue his partnership with Durant and the Nets, only to see Durant request a trade.
Durant, predictably, would like to go to the top seed in the East or West, wanting to be moved to the Miami Heat or Phoenix Suns.
With four years left on his deal, the Nets can trade him to whichever offer appeals most to them, but don’t expect the Blackpool Combat Club to get in on the negotiations as Durant has not bled with the right people.
He hasn’t bled with the right people, sources say.

The Blackpool Combat Club are arguably the top group in AEW as they house the Interim AEW World Champion and just won Blood & Guts over the Jericho Appreciation Society, so one would expect BCC to be on Durant’s trade list as joining a top team after failing to find championship success is kind of his thing.
However, Wheeler Yuta did not call Durant from the parking lot after losing at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door.
Dark Order are seemingly in a rebuilding phase and should not expect Durant to be willing to consider joining them. Even though Dark Order supported Hangman Page in his quest to the AEW World Title, Durant doesn’t believe he can win with those cats.
