While the Bucks look strong, Durant and Devin Booker are critical to the Suns offensive strategy. Durant averages 26.6 points per game, and Booker follows closely with an average of 25.8 points per game. Given their current standing, the Suns will try to keep up their three game winning streak.

According to Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated, Durant will favor the Rockets above others, given his love for the franchise.
“It’s no secret that Phoenix will split with Kevin Durant this summer. Durant has one year left on his contract and even approaching 37 still has incredibly high value. I think—and this is just my opinion—that Durant wants to wind up in Houston,” Mannix wrote. “I think if the Rockets wanted Durant before the trade deadline, it would have happened. Durant has a lot of respect for Ime Udoka and in Houston he could be a missing piece to a title contender. I’d keep an eye on that after this season.”

“I have mad respect for teams like this that struggle for a few years, draft young and get a coach that holds them accountable and holds them to a standard and they appreciate that.” #Rockets #Sarge @TheRocketsWire pic.twitter.com/iGSaTHvNu5
After the Suns reportedly explored trade options for Durant before the deadline, it became evident that the management is exploring a way out.
With only one season left on his contract and the Suns seemingly on a downward trajectory after a likely quick exit from the playoffs. And Durant’s move away from Phoenix this summer appears almost inevitable.
