The Athletic's Fred Katz reported Wednesday night that the Houston Rockets' Kevin Durant deal with the Phoenix Suns could expand into a seven-team bonanza. The trade hasn't been made official yet, which allows for this maneuvering, most of which would be done to move some salary around between various teams.

These Jalen Green trades could have been helpful for the Rockets had they whiffed on their trade pursuit of Kevin Durant.

Houston won’t formally acquire Kevin Durant and Clint Capela until this weekend, and The Athletic says the deal may involve an NBA-record seven teams.
