Russell Westbrook Remains Unsigned in NBA Offseason, Linked to Kings

Former MVP Russell Westbrook is currently an unrestricted free agent, with no teams having signed him yet for the upcoming season. Last season, Westbrook averaged 13.3 points and 6.1 assists per game for the Nuggets, demonstrating good chemistry with Nikola Jokić, though his performance was noted for its significant ups and downs, ranging from infectious energy and dynamic plays to questionable decisions. After opting out of a $3.5 million player option, Denver decided to go in a different direction. Westbrook has been strongly linked to the Sacramento Kings and is expected to sign for a veteran minimum or a small exception if a team still has one available.
