Kevin Durant’s Future in Question: Latest Trade Rumors

Growing speculation as KD is downgraded to doubtful vs. OKC

Kevin Durant’s future remains uncertain as trade rumors intensify. The star forward, now just 26 points away from reaching 30,000 career points, has been officially downgraded to “doubtful” for Wednesday’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a left ankle sprain, per the Suns.

Meanwhile, Phoenix has reportedly started listening to trade offers for Durant. ESPN reports that the Golden State Warriors are among the most interested teams, while Houston and Dallas could also pursue him. Fresh off their Luka Dončić-for-Anthony Davis trade, the Mavericks dream of adding Durant to their core alongside Kyrie Irving and Davis, though a deal remains unlikely.

A potential trade scenario could involve Jimmy Butler: Sports Illustrated reports that Phoenix may move Durant if they fail to land Butler. Additionally, The Stein Line suggests a situation where KD returns to the Warriors while Butler heads to the Suns. According to Brett Siegel, Golden State has made Durant their top priority ahead of the trade deadline.

With the deadline looming, the question remains: Has Durant already played his last game for Phoenix?
