NBA – We are still at the rumor stage but Russell Westbrook could leave. It is once again ESPN which launches the information but it is both contradictory with regard to what has happened in recent weeks.

We really wonder if the Lakers want to transfer Russell Westbrook because there are plenty of opportunities. They had a (biggest) opportunity with the Pacers and getting Myles Turner and Buddy Hield. A shame when you know that these two young players can clearly rebalance the team and fill two gaps in the franchise: the 3-point shoot and defense. However, the Lakers did not want to include an additional draft pick, which caused things to fall apart. Without wanting to offend the former MVP, it is not a gift to transfer such a contract and the team that could recover it is right to ask for some consideration. Water has flowed under the bridge since then, especially with the arrival of Patrick Beverley. However, ESPN and more precisely the always very informed and respected, Ramona Shelburne, announced that the player did not ask for his transfer but would be very happy to leave, he would be open to this idea. :

“Russ is very open to a trade,” Shelburne said on Lowe’s podcast. “He didn’t ask to be traded. I have been assured of it. But he’s open to that, and to somebody who wants him, who wants to empower him, and who wants him to be the Russell Westbrook of yesteryear. »

This intervention may seem contradictory. Russell Westbrook has been seen several times at the Lakers training center. At this time of the season, players who want to be transferred never show up on the premises of their ex-future franchise. Brodie has also been seen with Patrick Beverley, who is delighted to team up with him despite the rather rough history between the two men. Of course, it’s hard to tell the true from the false in the rumors and if there is to be a change, the Lakers will have to hurry to conclude a deal. Distractions – especially in Los Angeles – can kill a team and no doubt they don’t want that to happen in the middle of training camp and after two disappointing seasons, especially when you have a certain Lebron James in the roster. Whatever happens, following the purple and gold franchise is going to be a pure treat to follow in the coming months.

Transfer or no transfer? The training media day should tell us more about the situation. Russell Westbrook owes revenge to his fans and especially to himself. To become himself again and to be efficient, such is his mission.
