Phoenix Suns superstar forward Kevin Durant and rookie Ryan Dunn both participated in Wednesday’s morning shootaround heading into matchup against Minnesota Timberwolves at Footprint Center to end a three-game homestand.

All-Star Game starter Kevin Durant was not having it with negative Suns fans on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.

Pierce pitched the Thunder to trade Chet Holmgren for Kevin Durant, which sparked a loud conversation across the media. Former NBA guard Jeff Teague took to the "Club 520 Podcast" to make his strong opinion known of the trade.

The relationship between Kevin Durant and Anthony Edwards is a sign that the NBA's veteran stars are open to mentoring the future faces of the league.

Ahead of the matchup, Kevin Durant has been added to the injury report with a left thumb injury. He's listed as questionable, so he could definitely be on the hardwood with his team.

Durant was a GTD for Wednesday's contest due to a left thumb injury, but he's been given the green light to suit up. The 36-year-old forward is averaging 27.1 points, 6.4 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.3 blocks per game this season.

Deemed GTD

Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer continues to be amazed at Kevin Durant, as he's entering his 15th All-Star Game.

Golden State and Phoenix will square off in a matchup of Western Conference opponents. The teams square off Friday for the first time this season.

Anthony Edwards scored 33 points, Julius Randle added 28 and the Minnesota Timberwolves won their fourth straight game by beating the Phoenix Suns 121-113 on Wednesday night.

For the Suns, they need Durant in the lineup to continue their recent hot streak. Phoenix has won three consecutive games and eight of their last 10 contests. They now sit eighth in the Western Conference standings with a 24-21 record after falling all the way to 12th in the standings.
