Suns Top of Kevin Durant's Preferred Teams, Per Reports
Kevin Durant in a Phoenix Suns uniform was once considered a pipe dream.
Over the last few weeks, rumblings between the Nets and Durant (along with Kyrie Irving) stirred the pot on potential trade talks. After Irving opted back into his player option for next season, the expectation was for Durant to remain in Brooklyn despite having no communication with the organization.
Now, Durant playing in a Suns uniform seems like a true possibility.
Just minutes after Durant reportedly requested a trade from the Nets, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the superstar forward has two teams at the top of his wish list: The Miami Heat and Phoenix Suns.

Arizona Sports' 98.7 FM John Gambadoro also reported the Suns have now shifted their focus on obtaining Durant.

The mutual interest comes as no surprise, but will the Suns and Brooklyn be able to strike a deal? Will Phoenix be able to put together a package that will keep their roster intact?
Those questions will be answered in due time, yet it's no longer a question if Durant actually wants to come to Phoenix.
