On Monday, ESPN confirmed that possibility, reporting that the Suns have focused on negotiations with three teams: the Rockets, Heat and Minnesota Timberwolves. The Timberwolves are obviously not one of the three teams on that list. According to Shams Charania, "Durant has no desire to be in Minnesota with the Timberwolves."

The latest twist in the Kevin Durant sweepstakes seems to have the Timberwolves on the outside looking in as teams are assembling their best offers to entice the Suns to deal the 36-year-old former MVP.

Is a holding pattern a dangerous place for the Miami Heat to be when it comes to a potential Kevin Durant trade?

Kevin Durant averaged a team-high 26.6 points in his second full season with the Phoenix Suns. An ideal fit for him in a trade is with the Rockets.
