The Phoenix Suns have one of the most talented rosters in the NBA led by Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. However, the team is just 19-20 in their first 39 games, which has them as the 11th seed in the Western Conference.

Houston Rockets, coming off an impressive season, aimed to solidify their roster for a strong NBA playoff run by pursuing a high-profile trade involving one of the Phoenix Suns’ star, Kevin Durant. Houston Rockets are building on an impressive season as they strive to become serious playoff contenders.

The Houston Rockets can transform themselves into contenders if they convince the Phoenix Suns to trade Kevin Durant for a massive package.

"To steal a page from the Brooklyn Nets, Phoenix would receive back its own 2025 and 2027 first-round picks. Those two picks were initially traded to Brooklyn when Durant joined Phoenix two years ago, and then again traded to Houston this past summer. The 2025 pick would be projected to land in the lottery.
