The Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs are two teams linked to the possibility of landing Durant, along with the Minnesota Timberwolves and others. According to John Gambadoro, a notable Suns insider, Durant and someone close to him had a conversation about the Spurs, which is why Gambadoro linked the two sides in a trade conversation.

The Phoenix Suns haven't had the envisioned success with Kevin Durant, who is likely to be dealt during the offseason.
