While Kevin Durant reportedly prefers to play elsewhere, the Phoenix Suns haven't given up hope he would accept a trade to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Kevin Durant is not interested in taking his talents to Minnesota. ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Monday that the future Hall of Famer has “no desire” to join the Timberwolves, preferring instead to be traded to the Heat, Spurs or Rockets.

On Monday, ESPN confirmed that possibility, reporting that the Suns have focused on negotiations with three teams: the Rockets, Heat and Minnesota Timberwolves. The Timberwolves are obviously not one of the three teams on that list. According to Shams Charania, "Durant has no desire to be in Minnesota with the Timberwolves."
