Amidst all the talk of Bradley Beal and Malcolm Brogdon as potential Bucks targets, another big-name guard has been linked to Milwaukee. According to Clutch Points’ Brett Siegel, Russell Westbrook is a candidate to fill one of the team’s final roster spots.
With Kevin Porter Jr. agreeing to re-sign in the opening hours of free agency and Ryan Rollins re-upping on a $12m, three-year deal, the Bucks still have a need for added point-guard depth, especially of the veteran variety. At 36 years old and coming off his 17th season, Westbrook would likely command a veteran minimum deal similar to the one he signed with the Denver Nuggets last season.
