Brooklyn Nets Receive: F/C Jaren Jackson Jr., F/C Brandon Clarke, F Ziare Williams, 2023 First-Round Pick (MEM), 2025 First-Round Pick (MEM)
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: F Kevin Durant
We’re sorry. Did you think the price for Kevin Durant would be low?
That’s on you. Durant is one of the most purely gifted scorers in the history of basketball. If the Grizzlies want to add him to their roster, they’ll be paying a premium.

Still, Clarke and Williams are both young players with a lot of potential in their own rights.
