In early February, the Phoenix Suns attempted to trade Kevin Durant to the Golden State Warriors without his knowledge. He eventually got wind of the negotiations and squashed the deal, but the writing was on the wall at that point.

A new report from NBA writer Matt Moore indicates that Durant nixed a trade that would have sent him to Minnesota.
