Suns Expand Durant Trade Talks Beyond Spurs

Kevin Durant is the subject of ongoing trade talks, with the Phoenix Suns expected to deal him before the 2025 NBA Draft. While Durant was initially linked to the San Antonio Spurs, the Suns have shifted focus to the Houston Rockets, Miami Heat, and Minnesota Timberwolves, as the Spurs prioritize drafting Dylan Harper with the No. 2 pick. The New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers have also emerged as potential trade partners, with some mock trades featuring players like Paul George and Karl-Anthony Towns in complex multi-team scenarios. Analysts express skepticism about the plausibility of such blockbuster deals, especially those involving the 76ers. Suns fans and commentators prefer acquiring younger assets over aging stars to complement Devin Booker. Trade negotiations remain fluid, and a deal could occur before the June 25 draft.
