Russell Westbrook just fired his longtime agent who wanted him to stay in LA and finish his contract. This is leading to speculation that Westbrook might be open to a buyout and a new contract, which would obviously mean his agent taking less money. I’m sure Westbrook feels like his situation in LA is toxic and he’s willing to do whatever to get away, including giving up money. I guess him and his agent couldn’t agree on that strategy. His agent released a good statement about it. Worth reading…
Maybe he is the toxic itself that's players and management is outcasting him to the team. He has the best team he ever had on the Okc before but he choose to be with Lebron just to get a ring and result to failure, And no team needed him anymore because there's many young player that has potential which team wants to keep for long term.
It will be hard for him to find a team like Okc which let him do his thing freely because they are getting old and ineffective base on his previous performance on Lakers this season.
