Kevin Durant still remains one of the best players in the NBA at 36. The 2014 MVP is in his third season playing for the Phoenix Suns with averages of 27.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.4 blocks per cotnest while shooting 53.2% from the field and 40.4% from the three-point range in 41 games. However, Durant was mentioned in a lot of trade rumors last week. ESPN's Shams Charania reported that the Minnesota Timberwolves were a team that went after Durant. On Saturday, Anthony Edwards was asked about the Durant rumors (h/t Duan Rankin of azcentral). Edwards: "It was crazy, man. I've seen some crazy stuff about Kevin Durant in the trade talks... I was super surprised. I didn't think Phoenix would be tying to trade him."
