In early February, the Phoenix Suns attempted to trade Kevin Durant to the Golden State Warriors without his knowledge. He eventually got wind of the negotiations and squashed the deal, but the writing was on the wall at that point.

The Phoenix Suns reportedly "covet" a young guard from the Minnesota Timberwolves in trade talks for Kevin Durant.

Though Anthony Edwards has said in the past that Kevin Durant is his favorite player, the Minnesota Timberwolves star reportedly isn't trying to convince the veteran to join his squad.
