Refusing to implement the player option
Westrow became a free agent
Recent reports have been reported that the Hapur Club in Tel Aviv, Israel, had contacted Westbrook in the overseas league and was very satisfied with it. It plans to provide it with an unprecedented salary in European basketball history. At that time, some fans speculated that Westbrook would have to play in the overseas league in his later years?

And today's big news seems to drive this possibility.
According to famous reporter Stein, Westbrook rejected the player option and became a complete free agent! By time, Westbrook needs to decide whether to implement his $3.5 million player option next season by the end of this month, that is, before June 30. Now he has clearly chosen to refuse, which means he will become a complete free agent.

Last season, Westbrook played 75 regular season games for the Nuggets, averaging 13.3 points and 4.9 rebounds per game; he played in 13 playoffs, averaging 11.7 points and 3.7 rebounds per game.

Since Westbrook is a Nuggets player, salary expert Bobby Marks then updated the Nuggets' salary status after Westbrook became a free agent: After Westbrook rejected the 3.4 million player option, the Nuggets' total salary was lower than the second richest line of 10.6 million.
The team currently has 12 players with contracts, and they will use the exception of 5.7 million to supplement the two veterans' basic salary players; if Westbrook will return to the Nuggets, his salary will be 3.6 million (the basic salary of veterans over 10 years) and occupy 2.2 million salary space.

In fact, Siyuan doesn't really want Westbrook to come back. On the one hand, he is asked to do 36 million yuan with a salary of 3.6 million yuan. No one praises him for his good work. If he doesn't do it, he takes the blame rate by 99%. Siyuan really can't stand it anymore.
A week ago, Westbrook updated his social media and posted a black and white back, and wrote: "I am a force of nature. I have completed 17 seasons. I am grateful for this continued journey. The 18th season is about to start."

From this point, it can be seen that Westbrook is probably not interested in fighting in overseas leagues.
A detailed look at Westbrook's twists and turns in recent years. After playing from the Thunder for 11 years, he has not been in a team for more than 2 years. However, every time the team loses, Westbrook always takes the blame.

Rockets, 1 year; Wizards, 1 year; Lakers, 1.5 years; Clippers, 1.5 years; Nuggets, 1 year. Only in the Lakers played more than 100 games, with the highest average score in the Rockets period, while in the Wizards period, the performance was the most versatile.
Finally, where do you think Westbrook's next stop will go?
