The Suns have reportedly received multiple offers from teams, but so far, they haven’t been impressed by any of them, and KD remains a member of the Suns.
One of the biggest names offered for Durant was Houston Rockets star guard Jalen Green.
Despite Green being considered one of the top young players in the league, coming off a career year where he averaged 21 points and 4.6 rebounds while leading the Rockets to the second seed in the West, the Suns are not interested in acquiring him.

According to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports, the Suns have zero interest in trading for Jalen Green as part of a potential Durant deal with the Rockets.
If Houston wants to include Green in the trade, they'll need to find a third team willing to take on his contract.
Durant, a 15-time All-Star, 2014 NBA MVP, and four-time scoring champion, is entering the final year of his contract in the 2025–26 season.
Despite his age, he remains highly productive, averaging 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.2 assists per game this past season.
