Years removed from their time together on the Golden State Warriors, Draymond Green and Kevin Durant were almost teammates again. Among the things the former MVP brought up in his podcast interview was opting to remain with the Phoenix Suns at the deadline.

Leading up to the deadline, Durant shockingly found himself in trade rumors. Golden State reportedly had a deal worked out for him, but he informed the Suns he didn't want to go there. The franchise accepted his wishes and opted not to go through with the deal.

While speaking with Draymond Green, KD opened up on what made him come to this decision. He feels it would have been too big of a move in-season and would rather change teams in the offseason if the Suns want to go that route.

"I get why y'all want to trade me. Simple fact, that's just business," Durant said. "For me looking at it, it just don't make sense.
If that's the decision you want to make in the offseason then figure it out."

Even though things fell through with Durant, Green and the Warriors were still able to make sizable upgrades. They pivoted to acquiring Jimmy Butler, who has provided a massive boost since coming over from the Miami Heat.
