It’s a good morning, isn’t it? Well, today is a good morning for Phoenix Suns fans because they have an extra Kevin Durant on their team.
The Suns are sending Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder, four first-round picks, a 2028 trade for Durant and TJ Warren, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported. Durant wanted to move and new owner Mat Ishbia pushed to get the deal done later in the day.

Just like that, the Phoenix Suns have become the No. 1 contender in the NBA. Probably no team has Big Three players like these 3.
As always, turning a very good team into a winning team is not easy. However, these 3 have the makings of a truly devastating trio.
Let’s see how Kevin Durant will fit in at the Phoenix Suns, luckily there are still about 3 months to go before the playoffs start and – Boston aside – it’s not like there are so many solid franchises ready to win the NBA this year, starting with the defending champions Golden State Warriors, who are even in danger of being out of the post season.
