Trade speculations around Suns superstar Kevin Durant have become the spotlight of media and fan attention, with reporters including Sam Amick jointly disclosing that Durant is eager to secure an early extension—a two-year, $100+ million contract.

Contract Details: How the Money Works

Per ESPN salary cap expert Bobby Marks, Durant is restricted by the 38-year-old rule, limiting him to a maximum two-year extension this summer:

Staying with Phoenix: 2 years, $124 million (highest possible)
Traded to a new team: 2 years, $111 million (similar to Jimmy Butler’s scenario with the Warriors)
Six months after a trade: Eligible for a 2-year, $124M extension

The 36-year-old still has one year left on his current deal: $54.71 million for 2025-26.
