Wojnarowski reports Durant will sign a 4-year, $164 million deal, while Irving will sign for four years, $141 million. Terms of Jordan's deal were not reported.

The Pistons, meanwhile, are expected to sign former league MVP and All-Star Derrick Rose, who delivered a resurgent season with the Timberwolves in 2018-19.
