The Phoenix Suns have agreed to trade Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the No. 10 pick in the 2025 draft and five second-round picks. The Suns accelerated trade talks over the past 24 hours with the Rockets and the Miami Heat. 

The San Antonio Spurs were the other team on Durant’s preferred list, but they were not as aggressive in their offers. The Minnesota Timberwolves were also interested, but Durant resisted the idea of a trade there. 

Durant has one season remaining on his contract and is expected to sign an extension. 

"Being part of the Houston Rockets, I'm looking forward to it," Durant told Kay Adams on Sunday. "Crazy, crazy last couple weeks, but I'm glad it's over with."

The five second-round picks headed to the Suns are the No. 59 selection in this year's draft, two in 2026, one in 2030 (from Boston) and one in 2032.

Durant and Udoka have a strong relationship dating back to shared stints with the Brooklyn Nets and USA Basketball.

"[The Suns] wanted me to go," Durant told Adams. "They got what they wanted, and I got what I wanted. We can move on, and good luck to them going forward. Always remember my time there, but we're on to something else."

Green signed a three-year, $106 million contract extension with the Rockets in October 2024. When Green signed the extension, it was widely speculated that he could eventually be traded while on it.
