Suns have had their alternatives in OT, even with Kevin Durant’s foot/ankle clearly bothering him. Only a few too many open 3s that haven’t fallen. Down 3 with 39 seconds left – 12:30 AM

I’m actually torn between the truth that I feel the Rockets may win the title with Kevin Durant and the truth that if Kevin Durant is getting traded it most likely received’t be lengthy earlier than the Rockets can swoop in and use these Suns picks to swipe Devin Booker. It’s runway vs. ceiling. – 1:28 PM

LeBron James and Kevin Durant make simply shy of $100 million mixed. Matching wage on each of them, earlier than you even contemplate the asset facet of this, would take like eight gamers.
By no means say by no means, particularly after this weekend, however I doubt the Warriors can feasibly get each. – 12:48 PM

Extra on this storyline
Shams Charania: “The Warriors are legitimately calling about each All-Star participant. You title an All-Star participant, they usually’ve most likely known as about him. Paul George? They’ve known as. LeBron James? They’ve made calls. Kevin Durant? Jimmy Butler? Sure. They’re useless set on looking for one other star participant or celebrity to pair with Stephen Curry. That’s one other subplot to this commerce deadline as nicely.” -via YouTube / February 3, 2025
Golden State may use a stretch 5 and the Solar-Occasions has confirmed that the Warriors stay a risk after they try to make an enormous splash first whether or not it’s Kevin Durant or Jimmy Butler. The Lakers are immediately a risk, however would relatively strive hitting on a defensive heart first within the wake of touchdown Luka Doncic and dropping Anthony Davis. -via Chicago Solar-Occasions / February 3, 2025
It’s unclear how open Durant could be to a Warriors reunion and whether or not the Suns, if backed right into a nook, would even be keen to drag the set off on a Durant transfer throughout this transaction cycle. A lot of this will likely be tied to Jimmy Butler’s future, Miami’s motives, Bradley Beal’s burdensome contract and Durant’s response to all of it. -via New York Occasions / February 3, 2025
