Trade negotiations appear to be in something of a standoff, with Houston having a “firm offer” for Kevin Durant while Phoenix remains “underwhelmed.”

Kevin Durant's trade preference reportedly is one of the most exciting young teams in the league. Per The Athletic's Sam Amick and Jon Krawczynski, the Phoenix Suns star prefers to be traded to the San Antonio Spurs over the other interested teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves, Miami Heat and Houston Rockets.

As the Phoenix Suns weigh their offers for Kevin Durant in a trade that reportedly could be consummated at any time now, a lot of the talk is about what players are off the table as part of their return for the future Hall of Famer.
