The 2024-25 season saw Kevin Durant shine individually for the Phoenix Suns, averaging 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.2 assists over 62 games. However, the Suns struggled as a team, finishing 36-46, their first missed playoff berth since 2020. The team's net rating was a dismal -3.1. With Bradley Beal's hefty contract complicating offseason moves, Durant's future in Phoenix is uncertain. Rumors suggest potential trades to the Miami Heat, Houston Rockets, or Minnesota Timberwolves, with Udonis Haslem emphasizing Miami's stability and culture as a draw for Durant, bolstered by the leadership of coach Erik Spoelstra.
