The Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets are the teams Durant would commit to long term if traded, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Durant has only one year remaining on his current deal and could elect free agency next summer if sent to a team he doesn't like.

The Athletic's Jon Krawczynski also confirmed earlier reports on Saturday that Wolves forward Jaden McDaniels is 'untouchable' in any deal for Durant, but he also said that Minnesota has been discussing a trade, but 'a deal is not close at the moment,' according to the post.
