Heading into the offseason, it seemed inevitable that the Suns were going to trade superstar Kevin Durant, and on Sunday, the move finally happened. Durant, though, didn't seem particularly sad to leave Phoenix.

The Heat was among the teams that engaged the Suns on a potential trade for Durant after being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs in each of the last two seasons. But Miami was only willing to go so far in what players and picks it included in its offer for Durant at this stage of his career, as he’ll turn 37 years old on Sept. 29.

ESPN’s Shams Charania reported on Sunday that the Houston Rockets have acquired Kevin Durant in a trade with the Phoenix Suns. In exchange, the Suns received Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the 10th pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, which is on Wednesday night, and five second-round picks.
