ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Kevin Durant and his agent Rich Kleiman are actively engaged with the Suns to find a trade partner ahead of the NBA Draft.
No surprises here, as rumors of a potential Durant trade have been floating around since February’s trade deadline. The teams most likely to land Durant are the Spurs, Rockets, Timberwolves, Knicks and Heat, though Charania notes several other teams have inquired. At this point, a Durant trade seems imminent, and no matter where he lands, he should be an elite fantasy option thanks to his ability to rebound, facilitate, play defense and score efficiently.
