Kevin Durant will stake a claim for his third NBA championship this 2023-24 season

Come the 2023-24 season, the star-studded trio of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal will look to take the Phoenix Suns the distance, as the franchise looks to win its maiden piece of silverware.

The Suns pulled the trigger on three massive trades this year. Ahead of the trade deadline this past season, they acquired Durant from the Brooklyn Nets, and then in the offseason sent Chris Paul to the Washington Wizards for Bradley Beal.

Recently, they were part of the massive three-team trade that sent Damian Lillard to the Milwaukee Bucks and dealt big man Deandre Ayton in the process.

Last season, Durant averaged 26.0 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists in his eight games with the Suns. Had it not been for an ankle injury he sustained during his pregame workout with the Suns, he would have added more games to his tally.

Despite Durant's stellar numbers, the Suns failed to make it past the second round of the playoffs, going down to the Denver Nuggets. Now, a new season with bona fide superstars in the mix gives them a chance to get off to a strong start in the regular season and capitalize on it. It remains to be seen if the Suns can contend and win their first NBA title.
