ESPN’s Kendrick Perkins reports Durant wants the six-time NBA All-Star -- his former teammate on the 2016 USA Olympic gold-medal winning team -- in Phoenix, and that each would sign a contract extension with the Suns if a trade materializes.

Devin Booker, Kevin Durant’s teammate, revealed a disconnect within the Phoenix Suns, highlighting their struggles this NBA season.

Television viewership is down from this time a year ago. This matters to Kevin Durant, a 14-time All-Star who's seen what the NBA can do.

With the Phoenix Suns' latest embarrassing loss, it might be time to have an uncomfortable conversation soon on their long-term direction. What happens next in Phoenix?

The Phoenix Suns are headed in the wrong direction as a franchise. They've assembled a star-studded roster around Devin Booker, even adding a premier scorer and Hall of Fame player in Kevin Durant. The club's owner, Mat Ishiba, took over the team and was a willing spender -- a trait any fan should want a team owner to have.

Jimmy Butler, you are a Phoenix Sun. That is if Kevin Durant gets what he reportedly wants. The source of Durant’s desires is questionable, so take it with a grain of salt, but former NBA player turned analyst Kendrick Perkins thinks the Suns are aiming to trade for Butler and it has everything to do with Durant.

There was a stoppage in play as Lee was fouled by Pacers backup big Thomas Bryant with 2.9 seconds left. On the Suns broadcast, Grayson Allen and Booker are both standing up talking to each other with Mason Plumlee sitting on the bench between the two.

“It’s not like we’re not aggressive or that we’re not physical, either,” Suns star Kevin Durant said. “We just can’t get into a shoving match because they want to get into a shoving match. Just keep playing our game.”

The Sixers entered the contest short-handed with Joel Embiid, Andre Drummond, Kyle Lowry, Jared McCain, and KJ Martin all sidelined. While Philadelphia was able to put up a solid effort, it wasn't enough. The Suns leaned on a steady diet of Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal to walk away with a 109-99 win on the road.
