Kevin Durant delivered a stellar performance for the Phoenix Suns throughout the 2024-25 NBA season. However, despite his exceptional contributions, the Suns missed out on a playoff berth, wrapping up the regular season in 11th place in the Western Conference with a record of 36-46. Following this disappointing outcome, whispers about Durant’s future started to circulate.
Excitement grew when ESPN’s Shams Charania revealed that Durant is eyeing potential trade destinations, including the Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, and Houston Rockets—all appealing options he’s reportedly considering.

“Semi-retired Kevin Durant will be making historically efficient jump shots next season for… the San Antonio Spurs. You heard it here first,” Bayless said in the recent episode of The Skip Bayless Show.
