NBA: Warriors have new goals for strengthening, Durant chooses one of the next five, and the Celtics have new changes

The NBA Finals continue, and the Pacers and the Thunder are still competing for the championship. For other teams, new trade rumors are constantly coming out, such as new reinforcement goals, and the new progress in Durant's trading. The last one is also a bit surprising, that is, there may be new changes in the Celtics offseason. NBA: The Warriors have new goals for strengthening, Durant chooses one of the next five, and the Celtics have new changes.

The Warriors' reinforcement was mainly to try to operate with Kumingga as the core, but there was news that the Warriors were likely to leave Kumingga, which would make their offseason limited operating space, and it is very likely that Moody and Hilde will become bargaining chips in the future. Earlier, the Warriors' reinforcement goal added another player. According to American journalist Jake Fischer, the Warriors are a team worth paying attention to at Portis's potential next home.

league sources revealed that several executives expect Podes to have multiple options in the middle-class contract market, and although the Bucks still have hope of renewing the 30-year-old striker, the Warriors have always been one of the potential destinations for Polis. Portis averaged 13.9 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game last season. If you can get Polis, it will be a good addition to the Warriors. Although Portis is already in a downward stage, Portis may be a good choice when the chips can be used and the salary space is limited.

Durant's transaction is still fermenting, although there has been news that he and the Spurs have reached an agreement later, waiting for the official announcement of the transaction. But famous reporter Shams disclosed new progress, saying that Durant, agent and Suns are currently screening potential trade destinations, and the teams interested include the Spurs, Rockets, Timberwolves, Heat and the Knicks. According to previous Hoops Wire reporter Sam Amico, a league source told Hoops Wire that Durant hopes the Suns trade him to the Spurs. This is also one of the factors that Durant was previously exposed to have reached an agreement with the Spurs. Another factor that affects Durant's choice is whether he can get a long contract. After all, his salary is $54.7 million in the last year of his contract. Durant will be 37 years old in September. This season, he can average 26.6 points, 6 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game in the Suns; his three-point shooting percentage is 43%. After all, age is here, and a decline in state is definitely inevitable. How to fight for the last big contract in your career is the key. Where do you think Durant will go?

The last news is about the Celtics. Players Holiday and Porzingis, who had trade rumors, have been reported by the Celtics, but as the offseason gets closer, new situations seem to be emerging. Sham reports that the Celtics are willing to listen to the deal quotes about Jaylen Brown and Derek White.

Shams said that as far as I know, the Celtics are not inclined to trade them, but if there are heavy offers, they have to weigh them thoroughly. Next until the draft and free market starts, the Celtics will receive offers for the three core players, possibly including Jaylen and White. This means that except Tatum, the Celtics can trade all players, as long as the chips are given appropriately. In addition, Brown had undergone right knee arthroscopy earlier and is expected to recover completely before the start of training camp in the new season.

There is still some time before the offseason starts, and more news will inevitably come out. For example, the Lakers are likely to regard Lopez as one of their players to strengthen their inside line in the new season. Of course, before the deal is reached or the signing is completed, everything is uncertain. Which team do you think can be the first to complete the lineup adjustment in the offseason?
