Westbrook’s Quiet Free Agency Hunt | Sacramento Kings News

Russell Westbrook, a free agent and former MVP, might go unsigned as the season begins, despite strong performances last year with the Kings on a minimum deal. While Sacramento wants him back, their finances limit offers. Though he’s been a late free agent before and has bounced between seven teams in nine seasons, his veteran leadership could still be valuable — especially to teams like the Heat. But a new rumor calls him “difficult to coach,” a claim that clashes with glowing praise from teammates like Nicolas Batum, who called him one of the best teammates he’s ever had. Even without flashy highlights, Westbrook remains a productive force, and his next move will be one of the most intriguing storylines in the NBA.
