The Golden State Warriors are reportedly giving up on their dreams of reuniting with Kevin Durant. Per The Athletic's Anthony Slater and Sam Amick,

With Durant not eager for a Warriors reunion, Golden State has dropped its trade pursuit of the Suns' star. Elsewhere, the Bucks acquired Kyle Kuzma for Khris Middleton, ending the latter's decade-long run with the franchise.

The Golden State Warriors have played better of late, winning four of their last six games to pull back over .500. But they're looking at a stretch, beginning Wednesday, in which they will play 12 out of 14 games on the road, a make-or-break time for a team that started fast but has slumped since.
