NEW YORK — Nets star Kevin Durant said all sides benefited from the deal that sent James Harden to the Philadelphia 76ers for Ben Simmons.
The Nets completed a deal that sent Harden and veteran forward Paul Millsap to Philadelphia for Simmons, sharpshooter Seth Curry, big man Andre Drummond and two future first-round picks.
Durant, who was asked about the deal while selecting players as captain of Team Durant for the 2022 NBA All-Star Game, said he is excited for his team and looking forward to finishing the season with a new group.
