A plethora of reports came out on Saturday night implying that the Timberwolves could be out of the running for Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant. Could it all be a smoke screen from Durant and his team?

The Timberwolves continue to top the rankings for the most popular Kevin Durant destination, and Zach Lowe cemented it with the top spot in the buzz rankings.

Many teams will want a piece of Druant, and two teams could be "lurking" for the two-time NBA champion. According to NBA insider Brian Windhorst, the Toronto Raptors and Los Angeles Clippers are the two teams who could emerge as potential suitors for Durant.

Kevin Durant ’s name continues to dominate headlines, and the Minnesota Timberwolves are suddenly front and center in the chase for the 15-time All-Star. After weeks of speculation, momentum returned in full force, with reports pointing to a renewed push from Minnesota to land the veteran scorer ahead of the NBA draft.

The Minnesota Timberwolves continue to be involved in rumors of having Kevin Durant on the team, and Stephen A. Smith has reacted to the reports.

Kevin Durant's future in Phoenix is uncertain, with the Minnesota Timberwolves emerging as a potential trade partner. A proposed blockbuster deal could send Durant to Minnesota, pairing him with Anthony Edwards.

There could be a Kevin Durant trade in the next “few days”, per @ShamsCharania “The focus of the Suns conversations have been on a few of the teams. The Houston Rockets, the Miami Heat, and the Minnesota Timberwolves.” (Via @PatMcAfeeShow) pic.twitter.com/Wrhsy6Z0kC
