NBA Today: 5 best duos in the league right now

#3 Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant (Brooklyn Nets)

These 2 will now play on the same side

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant have been long time friends and have had a wish to play alongside each other atleast once in their career.

This wish has finally come true in the 2019 NBA Free Agency, where the Brooklyn Nets have managed to sign both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving to their roster.

Kyrie Irving is one of the most elite point guards in the NBA right now, with his ball handles already the stuff of legends.

He had an underwhelming season with the Boston Celtics last season, averaging 23.8 points, 5 rebounds and 6.9 assists. His chemistry issues were brought to light with the Celtics and he will be hoping to gel better with his friend Kevin Durant at the Nets.

Kevin Durant is considered as one of the best players to ever grace the game. He is an elite scorer and defender who can play all five positions on the court.

He had a really good season with the Warriors, averaging 26 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5.9 assists a game. He was also having a historic post season run before he got injured against the Houston Rockets and then again in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, this time for good.

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving would probably be the best duo out there if it weren't for Kyrie's chemistry issues downgrading his value while Kevin Durant's Achilles injury will keep him out of the Nets' plans for the entire season and most players have not come back to their best after recovering from this injury.
