Brian Windhorst recently shed some light on the Kevin Durant/Phoenix Suns situation on NBA Today. Durant was nearly traded at the NBA Trade Deadline. However, he ultimately decided to stick it out with fledgling Suns for the rest of the regular season. However, recent dysfunction in the locker room coupled with clear frustration from Durant’s part has shown that the Suns are not heading a good direction.
“They’re going to trade him,” said Windhorst on Wednesday. “And he knows that. There’s been a couple of opportunities where he could have criticized them for trying to trade him. He has not done that. He has been very professional about this. I expect that to continue throughout the regular season. He’s going to try to win every game that he’s out there.
“I think he’s handled this very appropriately.”
Windhorst added that “everybody’s intentions are crystal clear.”
