          Kevin Durant is headed to the Brooklyn Nets.

          First reported by ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Durant -- who will likely miss the entire 2019-20 season after rupturing his Achilles in Game 5 of the NBA Finals -- will sign a four-year, $164 million contract.

          And he's not the only one joining Brooklyn: The Nets are reportedly also signing All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving (four years, $141 million) and center DeAndre Jordan.

          Free agency has just begun, but Brooklyn is already sending the NBA world into a frenzy.

          Meanwhile, it's safe to say Nets reserve guard Spencer Dinwiddie loved it when Brooklyn's plan came together.

          Speaking of the Knicks...

          A little more than an hour after Durant officially announced his intentions to sign with Brooklyn, the New York Knicks -- heavily rumored to be the frontrunner for KD all season -- made some news:

          Amin Elhassan says the Knicks shouldn't have even taken a meeting with Kevin Durant if they weren't willing to offer the max.

          Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who knows a thing or two about signing massive contracts, was bummed to learn he won't be joining Irving and Durant in Brooklyn.
