Kevin Durant Traded to Rockets After Suns Era Falls Short

Kevin Durant’s time in Phoenix is over. The Suns are sending the 15-time All-Star to the Houston Rockets in a major trade that ends a two-plus season experiment that never reached its championship goal.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Suns will receive Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the No. 10 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, and five second-round picks stretching through 2032. 

The trade will become official on July 6 due to salary cap restrictions tied to Green’s rookie extension.
