The drama of the NBA Draft every year makes it one of the premier events on the basketball calendar. The buildup to the (now) two-day event is full of rumors, mock drafts and projections on where the top prospects will be playing next season.

The Philadelphia 76ers have plenty of options with the No. 3 pick in the draft, but the team could move up one spot with the right trade.

One player linked to Philly has been Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant. NBA analyst Kevin O'Connor proposed a trade idea on his show, "The Kevin O'Connor Show," that would lead the 76ers to land the two-time champion. The trade proposal will also allow the organization to dump George and his four-year, $212 million maximum contract.
