Breaking news: Kevin Durant trade offer Timberwolves must make to Suns to seal… See details 👇👇👇

The Minnesota Timberwolves are closer than ever to breaking into true championship territory. However, despite two straight seasons of postseason growth, they still fell short. Now, with a generational scorer possibly on the move again, Minnesota faces its most critical decision yet. Kevin Durant, even at age 36, still represents one of the most dangerous offensive forces in the NBA. The problem? He’s not sold on Minnesota. The opportunity? Phoenix might still bite if the Timberwolves put the right offer on the table.The Timberwolves wrapped up their 2024-25 NBA regular season with a solid 49-33 record. That was good for sixth in the Western Conference. Their stingy defense stifled opponents throughout the regular season. More importantly, the rise of Anthony Edwards into a bonafide superstar gave Minnesota a foundation it hasn’t had since Kevin Garnett.

The playoffs saw the Wolves dispatch the Lakers and Warriors, storming into the Western Conference Finals. Against a red-hot Oklahoma City Thunder team, though, their offense sputtered. Edwards carried a heavy burden and was ultimately outdueled by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams. The Wolves bowed out in six games, painfully close to the NBA Finals.

Now, in a critical offseason, Minnesota is exploring every avenue to take the final step. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reports that the Wolves have been the “most aggressive” team in pursuit of Durant. Yet according to other reports, the future Hall-of-Famer is currently not interested in joining Minnesota. That may be a major hurdle but not necessarily a deal-breaker.
