Brooklyn Nets went all out to bring Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant to their side.
Brooklyn Nets went all out to bring Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant to their side.

The blockbuster moves by the Brooklyn Nets have brought their two best players at number four on this list. In the 2019 offseason, point guard Kyrie Irving and small forward Kevin Durant signed huge contracts with the Nets.

Irving signed a 4-year, $141 million contract and left the Boston Celtics in the dark until they signed point guard Kemba Walker from the Charlotte Hornets. Durant signed a 4-year, $164 million contract after winning to championships with the Golden State Warriors.

While they are both set to make a combined $77 million in 2021-2022, Durant is unlikely to play in this coming season. But the organization still gave him a big contract, even after knowing his timeline of return could be between 9-12 months. Regardless of that, it will be interesting to see whether either of them will be on the team that season.
