According to Sam Amico of Hoops Wire, Durant would like to be traded to the San Antonio Spurs.
The Spurs are building a promising future, led by All-Stars Victor Wembanyama and De'Aaron Fox.
They also hold the second overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, though there's growing belief that a deal for Durant could be made without involving that pick.
Durant and the Spurs were already linked at the NBA trade deadline in February, when there was reported mutual interest.

The 36-year-old Durant has one year remaining on his contract and is set to earn $54.7 million next season.
Well-known sports analyst Bill Simmons even suggested that the deal might already be in place.
"I wouldn't be surprised if KD to the Spurs is done already," he said on The Bill Simmons Podcast.
