One of the biggest stories in the NBA offseason is what will happen with Kevin Durant. The Phoenix Suns have put KD on the trading block because he is the only viable option the team can move to get pieces back and draft pick flexibility. One of the teams running for Durant is the Miami Heat, but they still have options if they don’t land Durant.

NBA Star Reportedly Not Recruiting Kevin Durant Amid Trade Talks originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Fifteen-time All-Star Kevin Durant wants the Phoenix Suns to trade him to the San Antonio Spurs, Houston Rockets or Miami Heat. The Suns, who missed the playoffs this year, are expected to trade Durant before the 2025 NBA Draft.

Riley and the Heat's front office very well may carry on with their current mindset and put everything into landing Durant, but will a trio of the 4-time scoring champion, Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo be enough to sustain a deep postseason run?
