The sweepstakes around a potential trade for Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant have taken a new turn. There have been multiple reports around where Durant could go this offseason, with the veteran having a few preferred landing spots.

“Durant’s list of preferred trade destinations contains three teams,” Stein wrote. “Yet it almost had four. The Stein Line has learned that the Knicks also would have featured on that list but were ultimately omitted when New York made it clear that it has decided against pursuing a trade for the NBA’s No. 8 all-time leading scorer.”

Durant considered the New York Knicks a possible destination. However, the Knicks decided not to pursue a trade for him.
