Russell Westbrook was waived by the Utah Jazz following a three-team trade and will sign with the LA Clippers.
Westbrook was traded to the Utah Jazz in a three-team trade earlier this month the night before the NBA trade deadline. In the trade, Westbrook was sent to Utah, the Lakers reacquired D’Angelo Russell from Minnesota, and Utah's Mike Conley and Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and three second-round picks were sent to Minnesota.The 2016-17 league MVP’s time with the Lakers was turbulent.
Following the trade, Westbrook weighed his options. He was reportedly open to the idea of staying in Utah, but was informed they would prioritize its young players, and a contract buyout seemed inevitable. The LA Clippers also made some moves at the trade deadline, leaving them without a pure point guard after trading Reggie Jackson and John Wall. Unable to land a point guard at the trade deadline, there was speculation the Clippers would look to the buyout market. All the news you need to know, every day
