    Warriors, Cavaliers Eye Kevin Durant Trade After Missing Out on LeBron James

    After failing to sign LeBron James, both the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers are exploring the possibility of trading for Houston Rockets star Kevin Durant. Durant, a two-time NBA champion with the Warriors, is seen as a high-upside veteran scoring addition who could significantly improve either team's title odds. However, acquiring him would require a substantial trade package, as his contract carries a significant cap hit. Durant averaged 26 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game last season, shooting 52% from the field and 41.3% from three-point range.
