A new NBA rumor suggests the Phoenix Suns will have to lower their asking price if they want to trade Kevin Durant soon. And that is good news for the New York Knicks and Miami Heat.

With the ambitious goal of rising towards the top of the Eastern Conference in 2025-26, the Miami Heat have long been in the race to land Durant, and recent reports from ESPN's Shams Charania have solidified their position as a top suitor.

Kevin Durant is once again at the center of trade talks, and with the NBA Draft just days away, the Phoenix Suns are likely to move him. But this time, the reasons behind the teams’ interest are not what fans expect. Some teams want him to help on the court, but others see him more as a marketing tool.
