This season has been a mess for the Phoenix Suns and many fans are just waiting for it to come to an end.
That’s because there will likely be big changes to the Suns this summer.
However, anyone worried about Devin Booker leaving should be assured that won’t happen.
According to Brian Windhorst, per Evan Sidery, Booker has “no intentions of requesting a trade from the Suns, and Phoenix views him as untouchable in trade talks.”
However, Kevin Durant will most likely still be on the move in the offseason, although no one is sure where he is headed.

As they have in the past, the Suns obviously want to build a team around Booker and don’t want him going anywhere.
But now they have the tough task of figuring out the best way to do that.
Durant can net them a huge return on the trade market, but what direction do they take?
Do the Suns attempt to receive future draft picks or win-now talent?
If they angle for draft picks, that’ll leave Booker with a team that is rebuilding and far from success.
If the Suns want to keep Booker, they also want him to be happy, so they might try to secure a few All-Stars in place of Durant.
That way, the Suns can move on quickly and start winning more in the present, not the future.
There are many questions about what’s ahead for Phoenix, and no one is quite sure what the team will look like next year.
But this new reporting confirms that Booker will still be with the Suns when 2024-25 begins.
