Following the blockbuster trade that sent superstar Kevin Durant from the Nets to the Phoenix Suns, the team finally has a debut date. Durant will play his first game for Phoenix on Wednesday, March 1 against the Charlotte Hornets.
The Suns’ official Twitter account released the news on Tuesday morning.
