NBA News Roundup, Saturday, June 15th: Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving could team up in New York, Boston Celtics hesitant to trade for Anthony Davis and more 

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving could still link up in New York

Kevin Durant is expected to miss the majority of the 19-20 NBA season

After suffering an Achilles injury during Game 5 of the NBA Finals, Kevin Durant is expected to miss most of the 19-20 season. However, the 30-year-old is still expected to attract considerable interest in free agency and noted NBA analyst Chris Bucher believes Durant could team up with Kyrie Irving in New York:

I’m told Kevin Durant is out of the hospital, moved into a hotel for the time being in the New York area and him and Kyrie have met and have continued to discuss playing together next season. KD has moved all his stuff and will spend his summer in New York… Every indication says KD is making plans to be elsewhere because obviously Kyrie will not be joining the Warriors any time soon.

Durant has spent three seasons with Golden State, winning two NBA Championships.
