Furthermore, Durant worked with the Heat coach during the 2024 Summer Olympics with Team USA, where Spoelstra was an assistant coach under Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr. If Miami were to trade for Durant, it would team up the 15-time All-Star with another pair of All-Stars, Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo.

Durant reportedly has a wishlist (the Spurs, Rockets and Heat reportedly are on it), and with his expiring contract, he has a bit of leverage to get the deal he wants. But he is 37, not 27, and the threat of him passing on a lucrative two-year extension doesn't hold quite the same weight it once would.
