Phoenix Suns fans want him; Dan Bickley wants him; no doubt that the players want him; but on Monday, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, on Arizona Sports 98.7’s Bickley and Marotta, basically threw out the idea of Kevin Durant even considering the Suns as a free agent destination like a bakery throws out day old bagels.
His short answer to the idea is “no.”
Actually, that was his only answer. No explanation was needed.
Suns fans would love to believe that with Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton, coupled with a potential additional star in the draft and a number of other moves throughout the offseason (and now the addition of Monty Williams as head coach), that Phoenix will once again become a free agency destination – the kind that was regularly at the top of the list on many stars’ short lists for many years.
