SEATTLE (AP) - Kevin Durant is headed to Seattle, and Ray Allen is headed to Boston.
New Sonics' general manager Sam Presti pulled off a stunning set of moves during the early stages of Thursday night's NBA draft, sending Allen and the 35th overall pick in the second round to Boston for Wally Szczerbiak, Delonte West and the No. 5 pick. Boston selected Georgetown forward Jeff Green for Seattle with the fifth pick. Seattle will also receive a future second-round pick from the Celtics.
It was a shocking move, sending Seattle's most popular player, leading scorer and seven-time All-Star back to the Northeast where he was a college star at Connecticut.
