The big news of the day is that USC and UCLA are leaving the Pac-12 for the Big Ten in 2024. The other big news of the day is NBA star Kevin Durant demanding a trade from the Brooklyn Nets.
The All-Star forward won an NBA title in Oakland as a member of the Golden State Warriors, so there’s a great many Raiders fans who once rooted for him.
One of the newest Raiders is Davante Adams, who himself demanded a trade this offseason. Upon the news of Durant’s trade demand, Adams took to Twitter with a request to have Durant photoshopped alongside Adams, Darren Waller and Hunter Renfrow.
Twitter didn’t disappoint him.

This would be a superteam if it were the NBA. Not unlike the one KD was with when he was part of back-to-back NBA championship teams alongside Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson.
As it happens, the latter three are still members of the Warriors and just hoisted the trophy for a fourth time, beating a Celtics team that swept the Nets in the first round of the playoffs.
In the NFL, however, it usually takes more than three or four superstars to win a championship. Though it’s still possible providing one of those superstars is the quarterback.
