Brian Windhorst shared insight into the Kevin Durant and Houston Rockets situation, explaining that negotiations are active but incomplete.

Armed with this roster, the Rockets rank among the Thunder, Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves as probably the class of the conference. Windhorst indicates that Durant and Houston have at least discussed an extension, and are expected to eventually put pen to paper and get it done.

The biggest move of the summer offseason was the Rockets bolstering their chances of a trip to the NBA Finals next year by acquiring league legend Kevin Durant. The 15-time All-Star brings exactly what this very young team needed. An elite go-to scorer in clutch moments. And a veteran player with a championship resume.
