Timberwolves are still interested in Durant! Contact the Eastern Conference team for assistance, and the trade negotiations may be restarted this summer

On June 2, according to famous reporter Jake Fischer, the Timberwolves have contacted at least one Eastern team to seek assistance in facilitating their deal with the Suns regarding Durant. Earlier this week, it was reported that the Timberwolves were more interested in Durant on the trading deadline than previously expected.

It is not clear whether the Timberwolves will restart Durant's trading negotiations this summer, but the discussion may not start until Antetokounmpo's situation is settled.

Alexander Walker is about to become an unrestricted free agent and he may attract the interest of the Magic. Naz Reid and Randall have player options, with Reid expected to refuse to execute options and become a free agent.

Given that the team's president Tim Connery is expected to start negotiations on a new contract, the team is expected to continue to actively build the lineup around Edwards.

Durant played 62 games for the Suns this season, averaging 36.5 minutes per game, and averaged 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.2 blocks per game.
