More on this storyline

Russell Westbrook opted into his $4 million for this 2024-25 season, and now the Clippers are working to find a trade for Westbrook, league sources told Yahoo Sports. The Nuggets have already considered avenues to add Westbrook, sources said. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 30, 2024
If Denver moves Nnaji that gets the Nuggets under the second apron, and it would have access to that $5.2 million taxpayer MLE. One player the Nuggets were considering for that role was Russell Westbrook, sources said, before the veteran opted into his $4 million with the Clippers. Another veteran to consider in that ballpark is Dario Šarić, sources said, whom the Nuggets have coveted for some time. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 30, 2024
