If the Phoenix Suns fail to make significant progress, they'll continue to be involved in trade rumors. With the franchise playing mediocre basketball, a 6-foot-11 superstar forward may get shipped to the Oklahoma City Thunder to help accelerate the Suns’ rebuild.

As the Phoenix Suns work to regain momentum following a rough stretch, reports suggest a potential trade involving one of Kevin Durant’s teammates. This could significantly influence head coach Mike Budenholzer’s game plan.

Kevin Durant was excited when the Suns traded for Nick Richards, and explained why during Thursday's shootaround.
