Woj reaffirms Kevin Durant will probably ask out of Brooklyn if Irving leaves in free agency.
ANALYSIS: This adds a whole new wrinkle to the offseason. If the Nets are on the outs with Kyrie, KD's next team will be on everyone's mind until that domino falls.
It sounds like Brooklyn wants Kyrie back, but only on their terms. The fact that the Nets don't think he's worth the long-term investment speaks volumes about how they view his antics and missed games.
