Phoenix Suns Has 2 Demands From Spurs Amid the Kevin Durant Trade Talks

One of the biggest stories in the NBA offseason will be Kevin Durant s future with the Phoenix Suns .
The Suns have received offers from various teams around the league regarding the trade price for Durant.
One of the teams that has been interested in acquiring KD is the San Antonio Spurs .
The Athletics Sam Amick and Jon Krawczynski also reported on Monday that the All-Star forward prefers to play for the Spurs next season.
However, there havent been any offers from teams, including the Spurs, that have captivated the Suns front office.
Being an All-Star, the organization believes it can acquire a boatload of assets in exchange for Durant in the trade market.
Although hes 36, hes still one of the best players in the league.
On Tuesday, former Spurs front office employee Kirk Goldsberry reported that the Suns have two significant demands in a potential trade.
Goldsberry revealed on the latest episode of The Zach Lowe Show that they are looking to acquire either the No.
2 pick or Stephon Castle in a deal.

the Phoenix Suns are asking for too much, Goldsberry said on Zach Lowes program.
The Spurs arent willing to part ways with the draft pick.
And for their plans with Castle, they loved his rookie season and believe he could be a part of something big for the future with DeAaron Fox and Victor Wembanyama .
The Phoenix Suns still have a chance to make a Kevin Durant trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves Its been reported that the Phoenix Suns star isnt interested in playing for the Minnesota Timberwolves.
However, that doesnt mean that a potential deal between the two organizations is over.
On Tuesday, ESPNs Shams Charania appeared as a guest on The Pat McAfee Show and revealed that theres still a chance for Durant to play for the Wolves.
Clearly theres not an interest for Kevin Durant to go there, but Minnesota wouldnt be the first team to trade for a player that doesnt want to be there.
The Raptors did it in 2018 with Kawhi Leonard he didnt want to go there, he wanted to go back to L.A.
but he goes to Toronto and wins a championship that year, Charania said .
Its not something thats revolutionary.
From my understanding Minnesota is still studying it.
Theyre not out of it.
Theyre trying to figure out if theres a pathway where we can make this gamble, bring Kevin Durant in, still be able to build a roster.
Adding a star like the Phoenix Suns star could increase the Minnesota Timberwolves chances at winning an NBA title.
