Raptors and Spurs the latest team to be in the mix for the superstar.
As we get closer to the conclusion of the NBA season and the NBA Draft, rumors on Kevin Durant’s next team continue to heat up with reports of him possibly going to Canada or Texas. The Toronto Raptors have “been painted by numerous NBA figures as a potential trade suitor for Durant,” according to NBA insider Jake Fischer. He adds that the possibility of the Raptors adding Durant is more likely “particularly if [Giannis] Antetokounmpo doesn’t reach the open market,” which he reports teams are starting to doubt the possibility of.
Additionally, on Arizona Sports radio yesterday, Phoenix Suns insider John Gambadoro reported that the slim reaper told someone he trusts that he might end up with Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs.
Kevin Durant was talking to someone he knows and trusts, and they asked “Hey where might you end up?” And KD replied “The Spurs”, per @Gambo987

Both with top-10 draft picks and a litany of young players, Phoenix has a lot of options on the type of return they’d want for Durant if they deal him to Toronto or San Antonio. While both teams have players who recently won Rookie of the Year, it seems more likely that if they deal with either team, they’d get some of the team’s other younger players like Gradey Dick or Devin Vassell due to Durant’s age, contract status, and injury history.
