Amid ongoing rumors that Kevin Durant could be traded to the San Antonio Spurs this summer, Bill Simmons seems moderately confident that such a deal may already be in place. Durant was strongly linked to the Spurs late last month when ESPN insider Shams Charania revealed the Suns star and San Antonio had "mutual interest" at the trade deadline this past season.

New NBA Team Emerges as Favorite to Land Suns' Kevin Durant originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Phoenix Suns are widely expected to trade Kevin Durant this offseason. In fact, Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report reported that the Suns trading Durant this summer is a “foregone conclusion.”

Kevin Durant isn’t just a splashy name — he may be exactly what the Spurs have been waiting for: a veteran leader, a go-to scorer, and a playoff-tested champion who could guide Wembanyama’s rise and bring San Antonio back into national relevance.
