The consistent whispers out of Houston amid its 9-4 start have painted the Rockets as a team that would prefer to wait until the offseason before they seriously consider parting with any of the various prized recent draftees they have amassed. This has been interpreted in some corners of the league, as noted in a recent Sunday notebook, as a strategy designed to give the Rockets more time to see if dream trade target Kevin Durant were to become available down the road … no matter how adamant Phoenix has remained about its desire to keep Durant in the desert.

The #Cavs have won 14 straight games and their playing style has started garnering comparisons to the pre-KD Warriors.
The Cavs feel inevitable. It always feels like it’s a matter of when, not if.

More on this storyline
Duane Rankin: Suns coach Mike Budenholzer said he has “no idea” if Bradley Beal (calf) will be available for Sunday’s game at Minnesota. On Kevin Durant (calf): “His work ethic is kind of similar with rehab. He gets after it. He’s pushing to get back and be healthy as quick as he can.” #Suns pic.x.com/e64mhPent3 -via Twitter @DuaneRankin / November 15, 2024
The Austin group is represented by former WNBA champion Fran Harris, who is leading the city’s capital raise but has not yet disclosed her lead investor. She would also neither confirm nor deny that Durant will be a minority partner. “I have a team of people who are assisting in the cap raise,” Harris told SBJ. “We are at this point, putting together some strategic people in Austin, because sometimes when you’re putting a raise together, it’s not just about getting one big fish. It’s about who are the other people who are around the table…You kind of round it out with some usual suspects of people who might have attended the University of Texas and play in the NBA.” -via Sports Business Journal / November 15, 2024
