NEW YORK — Suddenly, the dust settled and the drama came to an end, and the Nets returned to their post as championship contenders — if not favorites.
The Nets announced in a joint statement with Kevin Durant’s media company Boardroom that the superstar forward and his agent, Rich Kleiman, sat down and came to an agreement with Nets owner Joe Tsai, general manager Sean Marks and head coach Steve Nash in Los Angeles on Monday.
“We have agreed to move forward with our partnership,” Marks wrote in a statement. “We are focusing on basketball with one collective goal in mind: build a lasting franchise to bring a championship to Brooklyn.”
