Sources: Westbrook eyes OKC exit, likes Miami

In the aftermath of co-star Paul George's departure, Oklahoma City star Russell Westbrook welcomes the idea of the Thunder engineering a trade that would bring an end to his illustrious 11-year career with the franchise, league sources tell ESPN.

The Miami Heat have expressed interest in exploring a deal for Westbrook, a potential destination that also appeals to Westbrook, league sources said.

Westbrook and his agent Thad Foucher have been discussing trade possibilities and scenarios with Thunder general manager Sam Presti and the sides are both motivated to find a resolution sooner rather than later, league sources tell ESPN.
