Russell Westbrook NBA trade deal

This NBA Free Agency window has been one of the most memorable ones in a few years. The window kicked off in spectacular fashion on Sunday, with a flurry of trades taking place is just hours after the window was open. And that trend has carried on in the following days.

Outline
  • #1 Westbrook off to the Hornets
  • #2 Houston Rockets get to pair Westbrook and Harden
  • #3 The Bulls land Westbrook
  • #4 Westbrook to Cavaliers
  • #5 Miami Heat get Westbrook
  • #6 The Mavericks land Westbrook
  • #7 Westbrook off to Orlando
  • #8 Westbrook to DC

Russell Westbrook trades NBA

Come Saturday, one would’ve thought that the window was finally done, but no. Another blockbuster move took place- Kawhi Leonard signed with the Los Angeles Clippers. And there may be one final big move to go- Russell Westbrook is set to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Russell Westbrook trade NBA deal

It is time to bring out ESPN’s Trade Machine, and find out which teams can land Westbrook:

#1 Westbrook off to the Hornets

While I DO NOT want to trade Westbrook, my friend made this and said to include two of Charlotte’s first rounders. How do y’all feel about this??? pic.twitter.com/cAlaghvSgs

That is a decent trade right there! Oklahoma get some young assets that they could use for their rebuild, as well a few first rounders. And Westbrook gets to play under Michael Jordan.

#2 Houston Rockets get to pair Westbrook and Harden

In fact, there is actual interest in Westbrook from the Rockets. But just not a substantial one. This trade works out pretty well for the Thunder, though.

#3 The Bulls land Westbrook

Westbrook in Chicago? Time Bulls compete. Otto gives OKC pathway to cap relief, and youth in White, or a non-point if 3rd team involved given Gilgeous-Alexander trade.

Not a particularly nice trade for the Thunder, they will be looking for better assets here.

#4 Westbrook to Cavaliers

All you see here are expiring contracts, so the Cavaliers may not find this trade as attractive.

#5 Miami Heat get Westbrook

Pat Riley has a big array of contracts on his books, so various trade deals could be proposed here.

#6 The Mavericks land Westbrook

I think that'd be great though I'm not sure Miami still wants to do it.

Flipping Lee and Hardaway (only big enough $) for Russell outright seems dumb. But the Trade Machine likes it for Dallas! Maybe we can trade Westbrook to someone else later. New York or Phoenix maybe? pic.twitter.com/VeMaEC6dnh

A trade that the Dallas Mavericks will surely love.

#7 Westbrook off to Orlando

Another move for Markelle Fultz, and the Thunder get a decent player in Aaron Gordon as well. An all-round good trade for them.

#8 Westbrook to DC

This one I don’t like as much. Could the #Wizards go all in on a Beal/Westbrook combo?

Remains to be seen how John Wall performs post his Achilles injury, but beyond that, a lot of first-rounders in this deal for the Thunder.
