The Suns are trading Durant to Houston in exchange for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the No. 10 pick in this week’s draft and five second-round picks, according to ESPN.

Durant, who spent the last two-plus seasons in Phoenix, averaged 26.6 points per game in 2024-25.

The Spurs and Heat were reportedly his other preferred trade destinations.
