"McCollum getting traded to Suns for Bradley Beal" - NBA fans befuddled over Kevin Durant linking up with CJ McCollum for offseason workout

After the Phoenix Suns' playoff sweep against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the offseason grind has started for Kevin Durant as he's been seen working out with a few NBA stars. One video has emerged of the Suns star working out with the New Orleans Pelicans' CJ McCollum.

In a video posted by NBA Central on X, Durant and McCollum were working out at Summit NYC while being guarded by some kids. Watch the video below to see the two stars work out.

Fans who saw this shared their thoughts on the matter. Here are some of what they had to say:

"CJ Mcollum getting traded to the suns for Bradley Beal," a fan said.

"CJ McCollum to the Suns," another fan speculated about McCollum's future.

"This man would rather hoop with CJ McCollum in June than start a family," a fan said.

A few fans found it weird that the two NBA stars were working out together.

"Never thought id see KD and CJ in the lab together," a fan said.

"Is it just me or does KD work out with the most randos in the league?" another fan pointed out.

"Why do players post this every year after they lost," a fan said.

Like Durant, McCollum also had an early postseason exit. The Pelicans were also swept in the first round against the Thunder.

Trade rumors for Kevin Durant are starting to pick up

Even accomplished All-Stars like Kevin Durant can't escape the trade rumors. As the offseason slowly approaches, there have been suggestions on where Durant could end up if they execute a trade. According to Bleacher Report's Zack Buckley, the Suns could be stuck in their current situation with their Big 3.

"As for the Suns, they might already feel stuck with the Durant-Devin Booker-Bradley Beal trio, and this would help create a little wiggle room. They'd have additional assets to help flesh out the roster, a tall task as currently constructed since they're over the second apron," said Buckley.

One trade proposal that Buckley suggested was Durant in exchange for Wolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns. Towns and Devin Booker have talked about reuniting at some point in their careers.
