Phoenix gets: Dejounte Murray, Mitch Robinson (can still take in another $11.3m in salary here)
New York gets: Kevin Durant
Atlanta gets: Julius Randle

I think Phoenix would rather those salary savings be turned into another player, but this is a little difficult.

Do not see it happening, but -

NY - gets Durant, Little (filler)
ATL gets Randle, JHart, #24
PHX gets Murray, Robinson, Hunter, (#25 or 2025 NY 1st), 2025 DET 1st (highly protected), 2025 MIL 1st (top 4 pro), 2027 NY 2nd.

I prefer a KAT for Durant swap if this is all the value Durant has. Could even send Dlo to Phoenix and re-unite the trio.

Both teams are over the second apron so KAT and Durant would have to make the exact same amount of money to be traded for each other and they do not.

How to balance the difference between Randle and Durant? Pass.

Too much probably...4 unprotected future FRPs + sweeteners...KD's still amazing, but how much of a window would we have? If we were blowing our draft capital + Julius + Mitch, I'd want someone closer to the nova boys age, so I think I'd pass.

No interest in gutting our teams depth for a soon to be 36 year old Durant.
