Kevin Durant Trade Talks Not Progressing As Fast As Suns Hoped

[RealGM Wiretap]

The Phoenix Suns' attempts to trade Kevin Durant are not progressing as fast as the team hoped, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line.

The Rockets and Spurs don't feel a need to include several assets for Durant due to having a younger core, while the Timberwolves' interest remains in flux.

Durant also reportedly has no interest in joining Minnesota. 

The Suns, who were looking to have completed a trade before the draft, could extend talks past June 25. 

The Heat, Spurs, and Rockets are Durant's preferred trade destinations.

Easy explanation in the Suns part, they're a bit delusional with how much Durant is worth.

Good luck trying to get 2 smart teams to over bid each other lol

He’s about to be 37, right? Brad Beal experiment set them back so bad

Durant isn't worth nearly as much as what PHX paid for him. Wonder if they just keep him and let him expire?

This is a lesson that tryna to do 2K trades in real life does not and will not work out.

I've never seen someone win so much and lose so much at the same time.
