Since the Los Angeles Lakers traded Russell Westbrook to the Jazz in February 2023, he's suited up for the Clippers and Nuggets. A new team will be added to that list soon, as ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania reported that Westbrook and the Kings agreed to a deal.
Westbrook declined his $3.4 million player option with the Nuggets for the 2025-26 season in June, making him an unrestricted free agent. After months of being linked to Sacramento, the two sides made it official.
The Kings entered the summer needing a point guard after trading De'Aaron Fox to the Spurs in February, and they decided to acquire Dennis Schroder via a sign-and-trade, signing him to a three-year, $45 million deal.
