Kevin Durant doesn’t want to be traded out of the Suns

Kevin Durant downplays the rumors circulating about his discontent in Phoenix. He contends that his words have been misconstrued and falsely attributed, notably in an ESPN report on Christmas Day. The report suggested that Durant’s frustration was palpable within the Phoenix Suns organization due to Bradley Beal’s absence and the perceived shortcomings of the supporting cast.

Speaking exclusively to Melissa Rohlin of Fox Sports, Durant precisely conveyed his feelings about his team.

I don't want to get traded. I'm not frustrated because Brad was injured. I wasn't frustrated because of the role players on the team. That s--- really was ignorant to me, you know what I'm saying? It's like, yeah, we lose a game, you think I'm supposed to be happy after we lose a game? You know what I'm saying? I'm not frustrated with the whole situation. I may be frustrated at the moment, at a bad play or a tough stretch. But nah, I enjoy the grind.
Kevin Durant said

Durant known for his stellar shooting abilities, this season is averaging 29.3 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game.
