Might as well get the band back together, huh? The Houston Rockets do need some guard depth, and Russell Westbrook does need a place to play in 2025-26, so... a match made in heaven? New Rockets star Kevin Durant is open to the idea, but I wouldn't say he's full-on vouching for the team to sign Russ. From Up & Adams with Kay Adams:
"I don't have no clue... I heard that too... It hasn't brought to my desk at all... Russ is a legend. I think he deserves to be in the NBA right now and I think he deserves to walk out of the NBA on his terms, so yeah, that would be dope.
