On June 9, the NBA Finals will usher in G2 today! In recent times, the whereabouts of Suns star Durant have become the focus of attention of the media and fans. Former NBA players including Cousins ​​and Teague have given him some advice and given Durant's ideal next home.

In this season, the Suns, which have the Big Three, have only achieved a record of 36 wins and 46 losses, ranking 11th in the Western Conference to miss the playoffs. Kevin Durant, 36, contracted $53.28 million in 25-26, and it is almost no secret that he parted ways with the Suns this summer. The US media’s view on this is: the issue with Durant’s transaction is not whether it happens, but when it happens.

Many former NBA stars have given analysis.

Joe Johnson said: "If you put Durant on the Rockets, he does a lot of dirty and tired work with the Suns, and he carries the team on both sides of the offense and defense. You put him with the young people, the Rockets have blue-collar players, Durant can focus on scoring, and he can seamlessly integrate into any team."

Jeff Teague said: "I just want to see Durant go to New York. He deserves to be in a big city like New York, and he deserves the spotlight. And when the players get old, the Knicks will always get these players, and And with Brunson and Durant, the Knicks' scores are guaranteed, and they will be more powerful in the championship."

Cousins ​​said: "It is obvious that he will be more influential when he goes to the Spurs. He will also have immediate influence when he goes to the Rockets and the Knicks. In fact, the same is true for him to go to the Heat. He can change the entire team immediately. That team needs to have plans, and they need to have plans to compete for the championship."

It is necessary to not only play Durant's personal strength, but also needs to be closer to the championship. Where do you think is the next home that is most suitable for Durant? Welcome to give your views in the comment section.
