Overview

• The Memphis Grizzlies have joined trade talks following their Desmond Bane deal, adding to interest from San Antonio, Miami, Houston and Minnesota.
• Minnesota’s latest proposal includes Rudy Gobert, Donte DiVincenzo, the No. 17 pick and a choice of Rob Dillingham or Terrence Shannon Jr., making it the richest offer to date.
• San Antonio, Miami and Houston have each offered varying combinations of draft picks and young players but still fall short of Phoenix’s demand for multiple high-upside assets.
• Durant has prioritized destinations such as the Spurs, Heat and Rockets and has publicly expressed reluctance about a move to Minnesota.
• Entering the final year of a $54.7 million deal at age 36, Durant is seeking a two-year, $120 million extension that is factoring heavily into teams’ evaluations.
