The Phoenix Suns have been perfectly mediocre this season and seem on track to continue at that pace through the end of the season. The Suns were 28–32 entering Sunday, over three games back of the Dallas Mavericks for the 10th seed in the Western Conference. It could lead to significant change this summer.
After the Suns unsuccessfully shopped superstar forward Kevin Durant at this year's trade deadline it seemed clear the partnership between the two sides was not long for this world. Since the deadline there've been multiple reports suggesting it's not only possible but likely the Suns will trade KD this offseason barring an unexpected surge on the court; doing so is the team's simplest path towards serious cap relief and a possible roster reconfiguration.
