The Phoenix Suns could trade Kevin Durant this summer after missing the playoffs this year. Durant, 36, has one year left on his contract. The future Hall of Famer was nearly traded to the Golden State Warriors at the February trade deadline.
A two-time Finals MVP, Durant doesn't have a no-trade clause in his contract, so he can't control where he gets traded to if the Suns decide to move him.
Durant has played for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Warriors, Brooklyn Nets and Suns. He hasn't been back to the NBA Finals since leaving Golden State for Brooklyn in the summer of 2019.
According to Five Reasons Sports, Durant is open to getting traded to the Miami Heat this offseason. The Heat, who traded Jimmy Butler to the Warriors in February after the small forward requested a trade, are interested in trading for Durant.
The Cleveland Cavaliers swept the Heat in the first round of this year's playoffs. Miami president Pat Riley told local reporters at his end-of-the-season press conference that there will be changes to the roster this offseason.
Durant appeared in 62 games for the Suns this season. He averaged 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists while shooting 52.7% from the field, 43.0% from beyond the arc and 83.9% from the free-throw line.

A four-time scoring champion, Durant turns 37 on September 29. He was teammates with Heat All-Star big man Bam Adebayo on the 2020 and 2024 Men's Olympic Basketball Team.
Durant will make $54.7 million next season. He has career averages of 27.2 points, 7.0 rebounds and 4.4 assists.
The Heat haven't won a championship since 2013. They reached the NBA Finals in 2020 and 2023 with Butler and Adebayo, but lost both times.
It will be fascinating to see if Riley can acquire Durant this summer. Durant is represented by Roc Nation Sports.

Everything I’ve heard is there is mutual interest between the Heat and KD. That doesn’t mean a trade gets done; but that’s one superstar (he still is) who hasn’t crossed the Heat off his list because of aversion to their “culture.”
