Pacers Could Have Interest In Russell Westbrook
3 years agoLos Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook is coming off a rough campaign and could need a change of scenery. However, the All-Star guard has a $47 million player option that he is unlikely to decline. Luckily, he is on an expiring deal, which could increase his value in the trade market. The Indiana Pacers are an organization that could have some interest in Westbrook. They have Buddy Hield signed to a two-year deal worth $40.4 million and Malcolm Brogdon locked into a three-year deal worth $68 million. The Lakers expressed interest in Hield before acquiring Westbrook. Possibly, the two sides can come to an agreement this offseason.
