Give up Durant! Clippers quit trading! The Suns are going to smash their hands

On June 19, NBA reporter Matt Moore reported that the Clippers have withdrawn from Durant's trading negotiations because the Clippers do not want to put Zubac into the trade. The Clippers' attitude is very clear: unless you can get Antetokounmpo, Zubac will be a non-selling product. In addition, the Heat also refused to put Herro and Adebayo in the trade!

Heat are one of Durant's favorite next homes, and the other two are the Spurs and the Rockets. The current quotes of these three teams have not impressed the Suns. The Suns have entered the "second stage" of trading negotiations and are looking for other teams in the league. The Suns used Durant to inquire about prices everywhere, no longer caring about his favorite team, the Suns only want the best reward!

Durant has no trade veto, and the Suns can theoretically send him to any NBA team. But Durant also has a certain initiative: his contract is only one year left and he will become a free agent next summer. The potential next company needs to consider clearly whether Durant is willing to renew his contract? With only 7 days left before the draft, the Suns are in a very anxious situation now.

Next, look at the quotations of each team, and you will know why the Suns are anxious: 1. The Clippers quote Powell, Bogdan and Derek Jones Jr.; 2. The Heat quote Wiggins, Rozier, Jovic, and Hax; 3. The Raptors quote Perltel, Barrett, Quickley and the 9th pick in the first round of this year, and even Ingram doesn't offer it.

4. Timberwolves quote Gobert, Divincenzo, Dillingham and the 17th pick in the first round of this year; 5. Spurs quote Wassel, Barnes, and the 14th pick in the first round of this year; 6. Rockets quote Jaylen Green + role player + 10th pick in the first round of this year. The Suns were not interested in Jaylen Green, and the Rockets later used Dillon Brooks to quote.

The Suns covet the Spurs' second pick and best rookie Castle, but the Spurs ignored the Suns at all. It can also be seen from the quotes of each team that no team is willing to give out the cornerstone of team building, and there are even quotations for multiple first-round picks. You know, the Grizzlies recently sent Bain to the Magic, in exchange for 4 first-round picks + 1 first-round swap.

In February 2023, the Suns used Bridges + Cameron Johnson + 4 first-round picks to get Durant from the Nets' trade. In the summer of 2024, the Nets exchanged Bridges for five first rounds. Finally, we welcome the discussion: Do you think the sun can still send Durant away?
