It was already considered a long shot that the New York Knicks would land superstar forward Kevin Durant from the Phoenix Suns. New York has been thrown in tons of rumors regarding a potential blockbuster for the future Hall of Famer since their offseason began.

While the Knicks could offer the Suns a center like Mitchell Robinson or Karl-Anthony Towns, Phoenix likely wants draft capital in a return for Durant. New York is a little strapped for draft picks after acquiring forward Mikal Bridges last offseason.

The New York Knicks are not actively seeking a trade for Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant, according to the New York Post, this coming after ESPN reported Wednesday the franchise was one of five teams in the sweepstakes for 15-time All-Star and two-time NBA champion.
