According to Sam Amick and Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic, the Suns are prioritizing getting the best offer out of Durant. They won’t trade him to his preferred destinations of Houston, San Antonio and Miami if the offers are not aligned with what they want.

The Spurs are also “conservative” in their approach, while the Timberwolves won’t push the trade if KD doesn’t want to play there.
