Now a free agent, Russell Westbrook will have to make a choice this summer regarding his future team. He could join a ring suitor, or he could stay with the Clippers. Nevertheless, the latest decision of the organization may not please him.
Very irregular and often in bad shape at the Lakers, Russell Westbrook ultimately never found his place alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Not a surprise for many fans, who were happy to see the point guard join the ranks of the Clippers. But we can say that he managed to shine in the playoffs… before falling against Kevin Durant’s Suns.
Russell Westbrook on the Clippers departure?
With over 23 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists against Phoenix, Brodie showed that he was still capable of great things on the NBA courts. At least if he is put in a good situation. Seeing him stay in Los Angeles is therefore a plausible option, but the Clippers have not planned to make a huge effort to retain him. They even hope for a gesture from the player.

The Clippers are hoping to re-sign Russell Westbrook at a house cut ($3.8 million) for one year, according to Eric Pincus.
Even after a disappointing season, albeit with a successful end, Westbrook can comfortably claim more than 3.8 million a season. If the Clippers do make such an offer, Brodie may decide to leave negotiations effective immediately.
Dude what. He isn’t what he used to be but absolutely deserves more than that. That’s ridiculous he should absolutely not take that deal. He can get 10-15 million per year

What. He’s not the same as before but he deserves more than that. It’s ridiculous and he shouldn’t take this deal. He may have 10-15 million a year

Russell Westbrook wants to stay with the Clippers, but probably not for any salary. A surprise given his level of play, so that a separation seems final in front of such an offer. Negotiations that promise to be tense.
