Should the Warriors eliminate the Rockets, it may be worth it for Stone to consider a trade for an established veteran superstar. The most obvious target might be Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant. All signs point toward the Suns rebuilding this offseason after missing the playoffs, and Durant is their biggest trade chip.

With their superstar trio of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, the Suns were expected to be a top team in the Western Conference this season. Instead, the Suns finished 11th in the West standings with a 36-46 record, three games behind the Dallas Mavericks for the final Play-In spot.
