Every offseason, NBA stars often stir up speculation and this year is no different. Recent reports about Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant potentially being traded have already created a buzz, and a social media post by his former teammate James Harden has only added fuel to the fire.

Harden, along with Durant and Oklahoma City Thunder's young star Chet Holmgren, participated in a workout session at USC's facilities under USC’s new head coach Eric Musselman.

James Harden's Instagram post has added to the Durant drama. In that post, we see Harden, Durant, and Chet Holmgren working out under USC’s new head coach Eric Musselman at USC's facilities.

While the workout itself featured drills on floaters with assistant coach Will Conroy helping, it was Harden’s social media activity that caught fans’ attention. Many comments on his post suggested that Harden might be mulling over returning to Houston and he could team up with Durant while doing so. There could be another potential reunion of Durant and Harden; this time in Houston.

This workout session and subsequent social media posts have reignited discussions about KD-Harden’s other team-up. Whether this speculation will materialize into actual moves remains to be seen, but for now, NBA fans are left buzzing with anticipation.
