Turning around! Durant trades the Suns value is reduced, considering the White Demon as a supplement, and still dislikes Green
3:36am, 27 June 2025【Basketball】
This summer, Kevin Durant's trading rumors were flying all over the sky.
In this league, its attention and popularity are even higher than the ongoing finals of the Thunder and Pacers.
The Suns have been in contact with multiple teams with deals about Durant, but the Rockets are still the team with the best chance to get Durant.
The main reason is that the Rockets' chips are more in line with the Suns' expectations, and the Suns hope to get their first-round pick back from the Rockets.
However, the transaction negotiations between the two sides are currently in a stagnant phase. It was just because the Rockets were only willing to give Jaylen Green + 10 draw as the main bargaining chip, and the Suns were obviously not satisfied with such a quotation.
Especially Jaylen Green, the Suns are very resistant to getting him. The Suns had even conducted a background check on Green before, for fear that Green would be traded to Phoenix. This is enough to show that Jaylen Green's poor performance has lost his worth after experiencing this year's playoffs.
However, the Rockets are not very anxious. The negotiations are just a tug-of-war with back and forth. The Rockets are also trying to kill the price, hoping that the Suns will lower the asking price.
In fact, all teams have seen it right, and the Suns are the more anxious. The Suns need to lower their luxury tax next year, so they must be eager to send Durant away. As each team generally does not give high-quality quotes, the Suns themselves have taken the initiative to lower some expectations.
In negotiations with the Rockets, the Suns loosened.
According to Evan Sidery, Whitmore may become a supplementary part of the Durant deal between the Rockets and the Suns.
"As the Rockets refused to add Ethan and Jabbarry Smith to the trading list, Whitmore became the next potential wing on the roster, and in Phoenix, Whitmore can play a more important role." Whitmore averaged 9.4 points and 3.0 rebounds per game in the Rockets this season.
If the solar energy reduces the requirements to this level, the Rockets can actually take action.
Although Whitmore has good potential, in Uduka's tactical system, he doesn't like Whitmore very much. Whitmore's talent is enough, whether it's shooting or impact under the basket, it is his strength.
However, the boy's basketball IQ, defense, and temper and personality do not meet Uduka's team building requirements. This is why Uduka did not give Whitmore too much playing time last season.
Retrospectively, Whitmore can't find a place to use it in the Rockets. Looking for opportunities in a new team is also a very good direction for his personal development.
Of course, the Suns consider Whitmore only as a supplement to the transaction. The White Devil's contract is still a rookie contract, which can only be added to the transaction. Then, the subject of the transaction must be a big contract like Green and Van Vlitter.
In other words, the Rockets still have to find a way to convince the Suns to accept Jaylen Green. The situation is both embarrassing and interesting. The Rockets desperately sold Jaylen Green to the Suns, and the Suns resisted vigorously. This scene really makes people wonder what to say.
If the Suns think that joining Whitmore can increase their trading interest, the Rockets may need to add another draft pick in order to sell Green. Or, look for a third-party team to join the deal.
In any case, the Rockets and the Suns have a deal about Durant, which has taken some turn.
Let's see if the two sides can reach a deal before the draft begins!
