The New York Knicks made it clear that they won't be pursuing a trade for Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant this offseason, but he reportedly would've welcomed the opportunity to be shipped to the Big Apple.

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.

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.
