Kevin Durant’s future will be known in the coming weeks, just before the draft. The Spurs are still in the game, so the player’s clan is putting on the pressure. Any big news this June?

Clearly ready to leave the Suns, Kevin Durant is now looking for a place to relaunch his career. His last campaign with Phoenix was a total nightmare, and the franchise is keen to turn the page by finding him a trade for this summer. It won’t be complicated, even if negotiations will be more difficult.

In recent weeks, according to journalist John Gambadoro, the Suns’ asking price has steadily decreased in the face of a lack of interest. Although KD is still very talented, we’re talking about a player who’s almost 37 and has only a few years before retirement. Talent alone is no longer enough to unleash a flurry of assets, forcing the Suns to make sacrifices.

Spurs and Kevin Durant reunited this summer?

We can imagine that some franchises are planning to wait until the last moment to take action. The Suns need to find a deal before the draft, which can be considered a deadline. Phoenix would like a first-round pick and possibly the second choice of the Spurs, who are interested in Durant this summer.

But will the Texans be willing to give up such an asset just to get Durant? Hard to believe, especially as Dylan Harper is considered a future star and the franchise is a long way from winning the title. Recruiting KD would be a good idea, but not a necessity for this team. Nevertheless, the player’s clan hopes to end up in San Antonio.

At least, that’s what Gambadoro says, who believes that the Durant clan can see themselves finishing with the Spurs. Playing with Victor Wembanyama would undoubtedly be an excellent idea for him.

@TheDunkCentral : “Per John Gambadoro, People in Kevin Durant’s camp are eyeing San Antonio as a landing spot,”

Rockets, Wolves and even the Heat are sometimes mentioned for the star, but the Spurs have often been linked in recent weeks. The difference with Minnesota is that the Texans are under no obligation to sign him, whereas the Wolves understand that they need such a star to turn the corner. Suffice to say, the next few weeks will be interesting.
