Death comes to the Holy City? The Sun sells Durant, and the Spurs enter the game with the king s chips in their hands!

Basketball

One of the craziest deals in this summer's offseason, KD Qunar officially started.

Microstal Jake Weinbach revealed that Durant's camp regarded the Spurs as their next preferred destination. With only 20 days left before the NBA draft, the Suns management quickly finalized the new coach Jordan Ultra, and the team's focus immediately turned to the Durant trade. Durant, 36, was officially put on the clearance shelves, and the team is working with Durant's agent Ritchie Kleiman to push the deal with all their efforts.

The urgency of the sun is visible to the naked eye. Bill holds the veto power of the deal, Booker, as the young core, is unshakable, and Durant has become the only star who can exchange valuable assets and untie the future (especially draft picks). What's even more fatal is that the Rockets hold the first round picks of the Suns in 2025, 2027 and 2029, forcing the Suns management to call the Rockets many times, and the asking price has dropped again and again: from the toughness of the All-Stars + multiple first rounds to the sale price of 3 first rounds + one high-quality young player.

Just as everyone's eyes focused on the Rockets, the Spurs came out of the diagonal spike. Sources from multiple sources said the Spurs are expected to chase Durant with all their might before the draft.

reporter Shams reported that the Spurs and Durant had an interest in each other before the trading deadline, and the two sides were highly likely to restart the transaction. In the next 2-3 weeks, rumors about Durant's possible departure from the Suns will increase. Before the draft, there may be 4-6 teams who are keen to Durant.

The Spurs have many assets in their hands that can meet the Sun's demand for reconstruction resources. Including some contracts that can be traded, they have the second pick and No. 14 picks for this year's draft, and there are many picks that can be traded in the future, and all their own picks are still in their hands. They will definitely actively look for forward stars who can partner with Wenban Yama in the future, and make the team's strength achieve a qualitative leap through signings.

The Spurs' chips are the king:

Draft pick: 2025 second pick + No. 14 + massive future first round (all independent control)

Young combat power: Elite shooter Devin Wassell + Wanjin Oil forward Kelden Johnson + versatile Sohan

Expiration contract: Veteran Harrison Barnes

Wassell + Barnes + No. 14, this plan hits the core demands of the Suns' reconstruction. For the Spurs, this deal is much more cost-effective than chasing Antetokounmpo - it does not shake the core framework of Wenban and Fox, but can also fight the present at the minimum cost. The Spurs are firmly ranked first on Durant's favorite list, and the nature of this deal has been upgraded from a Suns sale to a star designated transfer. Durant is interested in the offensive space created by Vinban Yama's inside dominance, while the Spurs covet Durant's historically-level ending ability without the ball. The two of them are the ultimate solution for modern basketball. More importantly, Durant's peak period for the remaining 2-3 years happened to be synchronized with the dividend window of rookies in the literary class. If he fails to win the championship, it will not affect the pace of reconstruction.

The sun's abacus is equally smart. As a 25-year-old elite shooter, Vassel can help Booker plug and play; the No. 14 can replenish fresh blood; Barnes' expiration contract helps release salary pressure. Compared to the first round of the Rockets, the Spurs' chips are obviously more attractive.

If the deal is reached, the Spurs will instantly jump to the championship team: Fox + Durant + Vinban Yama's three giants, combined with the original defensive system, are enough to challenge any powerful. Durant's playoff experience can better serve as an accelerator for the growth of the literary class, and the commercial value of Death will also ignite the Holy City market.

Suns reporter John Gambadoro revealed that the team will do their best to send Durant away before the draft night. This time node on June 26 is like a sword on the roof. The Suns urgently need to spend on the spot with the draft picks they exchanged to reorganize the lineup for Booker.

The Spurs have the right time and place: holding the second pick + the No. 14 draw, which can not only increase the bid in negotiations, but also retain high-level signs and choose new stars. If the Spurs take decisive action, the epic front-line combination of "Death + Alien" will shine from fantasy into reality.

"When Durant took the initiative to point to San Antonio, we knew this was no longer a rumor." A Western Conference manager lamented in an anonymous interview that it only depends on whether the Spurs are willing to bet on the future for the present.

Overall, Durant is more suitable for the Spurs lineup and more suitable for the Spurs' team building idea!

Imagine the scene where Fox, Vinbanyama and Durant are in the same team. The Spurs may become a real championship contender next season!
