Warriors officially complete historic seven-team trade involving Kevin Durant

The Golden State Warriors have officially completed a historic seven-team trade involving 15-time All-Star Kevin Durant. 

On Sunday, ESPN’s Shams Charania revealed the full details of the significant transaction. 

“PHX (Phoenix Suns): Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Khaman Maluach, Rasheer, Fleming, Koby Brea, Daeqwon Plowden, and a second-round pick,” Charania wrote on X/Twitter.

“Hou (Houston Rockets): Kevin Durant and Clint Capela. BKN (Brooklyn Nets) two second-round picks.” GSW (Warriors): Alex Toohey and Jahmai Mashack. ATL (Atlanta Hawks): second-round pick swap, David Roddy, and cash considerations.”

“LAL (Los Angeles Lakers): Adou Thiero. MIN (Minnesota Timberwolves): Rocco Zikarsky, two second-round picks, and cash considerations.”

Toohey spent the 2024-25 season in the NBL with the Sydney Kings. The 6-foot-8 forward, who has a ways to go as a shot creator and outside shooter, averaged 10.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 steals, and 1.3 assists per game.

Efficiency-wise, Toohey connected on 44.9% of his field goals and 31% of his three-point jumpers.

Mashack, on the other hand, recently finished competing with the Tennessee Volunteers in the formidable SEC. 

The 6-foot-3 guard didn’t endure the most eventful campaign, only contributing 6.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game with average shooting splits (45.4% shooting from the field and 35.1% from three). 

Still, there’s a possibility that Mashack, like Toohey, could eventually transform into a dependable role player for the Dubs under legendary head coach Steve Kerr.
