Clippers Receive Permission To Talk To Russell Westbrook
2 years agoUtah Jazz guard Russell Westbrook has yet to suit up since the deal that sent him from the Los Angeles Lakers to Utah. His name has been in the rumor mill as he's one of the most talented players currently hitting the buyout market. As reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Los Angeles Clippers have asked for and received permission to talk to Westbrook about a potential buyout and contract with the new team. The Clippers traded away Reggie Jackson and have been in desperate need of a quality point guard. Westbrook would receive a big value boost to his assist numbers while the Clippers would receive a boost in championship odds.
