Phoenix Suns superstar forward Kevin Durant and rookie Ryan Dunn both participated in Wednesday’s morning shootaround heading into matchup against Minnesota Timberwolves at Footprint Center to end a three-game homestand.

All-Star Game starter Kevin Durant was not having it with negative Suns fans on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.

The relationship between Kevin Durant and Anthony Edwards is a sign that the NBA's veteran stars are open to mentoring the future faces of the league.

Pierce pitched the Thunder to trade Chet Holmgren for Kevin Durant, which sparked a loud conversation across the media. Former NBA guard Jeff Teague took to the "Club 520 Podcast" to make his strong opinion known of the trade.

Kevin Durant received his 15th NBA All-Star nod. He is questionable with a thumb injury in the Phoenix Suns' next game vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Still, Hall of Fame NBA player Paul Pierce had an idea for the Thunder -- trade Holmgren for Kevin Durant. The 36-year-old forward is still playing at an MVP-caliber level, and Pierce's reasoning was that Holmgren has hardly played in Oklahoma City's remarkable campaign thus far.

Don’t be surprised to see the Suns rising as the second half of the regular season unfolds. They have all the pieces to be much better than what their current record indicates.

Durant was a GTD for Wednesday's contest due to a left thumb injury, but he's been given the green light to suit up. The 36-year-old forward is averaging 27.1 points, 6.4 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.3 blocks per game this season.

Anthony Edwards scored 33 points, Julius Randle added 28 and the Minnesota Timberwolves won their fourth straight game by beating the Phoenix Suns 121-113 on Wednesday night.

For the Suns, they need Durant in the lineup to continue their recent hot streak. Phoenix has won three consecutive games and eight of their last 10 contests. They now sit eighth in the Western Conference standings with a 24-21 record after falling all the way to 12th in the standings.

SAN FRANCISCO — The first of what is expected to be five jersey retirements from the Golden State Warriors dynasty has been announced. The franchise will retire Andre Iguodala’s No. 9 jersey on Feb. 23, coinciding with another Klay Thompson return night, allowing Thompson to attend.
