KD personally admitted: He once stopped returning to the Warriors transaction. After being put on the shelves, he knew that there would be changes in the summer

At the Game Plan Sports Business Summit, Durant talked about his process of being traded from the Sun. Durant admitted that he was hurt when he learned that the Suns were selling him before the trade deadline last February.

Durant said: "I was a little unhappy at first because I felt like I had a good relationship with the Suns. It was a bit sad to hear this from others, but that's the NBA. So I quickly let it go and started thinking about the next step."

Durant confirmed that he and his representatives tried their best to block a deal to the Golden State Warriors. Durant said: "I heard that the Warriors were among them before the trade deadline, but then Rich Kleiman (Durant's business partner) came out, and the connections we built in the league and my experience playing with the Warriors played all the role. We were able to tell them not to move forward."

Durant said: "Since I was put on the trade list in February, everyone was looking at the trend of the season and what the team needed. We knew we would talk again in the summer, and the Rockets took action very quickly in the offseason and things happened very quickly."
