Russell Westbrook Heading To Washington
4 years agoHouston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook has been traded to the Washington Wizards in exchange for John Wall and a first-round pick. There was speculation that Westbrook was going to be traded this offseason. Finally, his trade request comes true and he'll get a chance to play alongside Bradley Beal in Washington. Both players love having the ball in their hands, but a move to Washington should play to Westbrook's strengths. This trade should slightly increase his fantasy value next season. He won't have to share the ball with James Harden and can be the primary ball-handler in Washington.
