Kevin Durant’s future with the Phoenix Suns is uncertain, and if the team decides to retool, he could be on the move this summer. One potential landing spot that’s gaining traction? The San Antonio Spurs.
NBA reporter Brett Siegel suggests that the Spurs might pursue a blockbuster trade for Durant, creating a powerhouse trio alongside Victor Wembanyama and De’Aaron Fox. If that happens, San Antonio could instantly become one of the most exciting teams in the league.
Durant, a 15-time All-Star and one of the greatest scorers in history, has played alongside some legendary teammates throughout his career. Adding Wembanyama—one of the most promising young stars in basketball—would be a generational pairing.
With Durant’s elite scoring ability and Wembanyama’s defensive dominance and versatility, the Spurs could have a frontcourt that’s nearly impossible to stop. And if Fox joins the mix, their offense could be among the league’s best.
Would Phoenix be willing to trade Kevin Durant?
The Suns need to replenish their draft assets, and trading Durant could help them regain valuable first-round picks. While moving on from a superstar is never easy, Phoenix might have to consider a deal if they want to reshape their roster for the future.
If the Spurs land Durant, they wouldn’t just accelerate their rebuild—they’d become a legitimate contender. A trio of KD, Wemby, and Fox would give them the star power and offensive firepower to compete with the best in the West.
For now, this is just speculation. But if the Spurs are looking to take a giant leap forward, making a move for Durant could be their best shot at instant success.
