Durant has one year and $54.7 million left on his deal and is expected to sign a two-year , $112 million extension with whichever team acquires him.

The Knicks can’t take back more salary than they send out and are prohibited from aggregating salaries in a trade.

Phoenix mortgaged its future to land Durant in the first place, sending Brooklyn four first -rounders, a pick swap, and two high-end starters in Bridges and Cam Johnson .

If the Knicks move KD now, it’ll likely be for a retool around Devin Booker — not a full-on rebuild.
