Durant reportedly has a wishlist (the Spurs, Rockets and Heat reportedly are on it), and with his expiring contract, he has a bit of leverage to get the deal he wants. But he is 37, not 27, and the threat of him passing on a lucrative two-year extension doesn't hold quite the same weight it once would.

The San Antonio Spurs are casting a wide net as they weigh any available avenues to make a major upgrade this summer.

The contract extension comes shortly after Kevin Durant named the Houston Rockets as one of his top preferred trade destinations.
