The Athletic’s Sam Amick and Kelly Iko recently claimed that Durant has shown an interest in playing for the Houston Rockets.

Durant’s age makes him an unsuitable long-term choice for a youthful Rockets club. Nonetheless, he remains an elite player with the potential to significantly boost their ceiling.

According to Evan Sidery of Forbes (on May 12), the Rockets could potentially trade the No. 10 overall pick. With a strong youthful nucleus already in place, selecting Kevin Durant appears to be a home run. Suns GM Brian Gregory stated that their focus moving forward is on player development.
