You’ve heard the famous phrase: Steph Curry heals all wounds.
The departure of Kevin Durant from the Golden State Warriors in 2019 was a painful one, and there were certainly hurt feelings all around. Those took root much earlier in Durant’s time with the Warriors, to be certain, and caused friction even during his final season with the team.
Yet it’s also undeniable that an injured Warriors team still made it to the NBA Finals and then lost more because Durant and Klay Thompson both went down to injury than an relational problems. In recent years it’s clear that Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant have patched things up, and the two were clearly close when they led Team USA to a gold medal at the Paris Summer Olympics last summer — a team that was coached by none other than Warriors head coach Steve Kerr.
Why does it matter that Curry and Durant are on good terms? Well, as the Trade Deadline barrels ever-closer, the Trade Deadline barrels ever-closer, the Golden State Warriors are reportedly working the phones calling any and all teams with an All-Star player, asking what it would take to pull off a trade.
