After a solid first season with the Denver Nuggets, a reunion with veteran Russell Westbrook is "in play," per The Stein Line's Marc Stein after he declined his $3.47 million player option for the 2025-26 season.

Russell Westbrook is set to hit the free agent market after choosing to decline his player option with the Denver Nuggets next season, according to Marc Stein. Westbrook, 36, will be an unrestricted free agent on June 30 as he looks for his fourth team in as many seasons.

Westbrook could play the final years of his career with the team that started it all for him. The veteran is still very much loved in Oklahoma City, and there aren't any fans in the NBA who appreciate him more. This is easily the best landing spot for the future Hall-of-Famer next season.
