    I still remembered that OKC vs Jazz series lol

    WOW REPLACING KCP WITH WESTBROOK

    Nuggets about to be 5th seed

  3. Literal_Satan

    traded from LA to the jazz and waived again lol

  4. heshouldgo

    Traded two times to the Jazz is crazy 😭

  5. The prodigal son returned and then promptly left

  6. langman17

    Westbrook and Jokic on the court at the same time will be cinema

  7. Man if Russ wins a ring in Denver that would be something

  8. BruhMoment763

    A 2nd HOF worthy stint in Utah for Westbrook, wow

  9. lazzysmalls

    This is the second time they’ve bought out his contract

  10. “What is the only team that Westbrook has joined twice?” – Trivia question in 2035.

  11. ThisWay_DatWay

    If I had a nickel for every time the Jazz bought out Russ’ contract, I’d have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.

  12. Last_Operation6747

    I’m not even mad about the Lakers anymore because I get to watch Westbrook play 30 MPG and tank the Nuggets

  13. I’m begging you Danny, make Westbrook play for Utah this time

  14. nbaistheworst

    I don’t see this ending well for the Nuggets

  15. passthefanta

    Russ to Denver. That’s worked out before right?

  16. worldwide_stepper

    Denver is not going to win the NBA championship.

  17. Skyfalcon5

    Russ a magician got two of the greatest basketball minds Bron and Jokic convinced they can reign him in.

  18. Icy-Lime-9760

    Isn’t this the 2nd time Russ has been traded to the Jazz?

  19. puzzledplatypus

    And just like that Jokic won’t be getting anymore rings anytime soon


  20. Potential_Dealer7818

    Welp that’s the end of that dynasty

  21. Scrizzy6ix

    Denver gonna learn the same lesson them Lakers did

  22. TheyCallMeTheWizard

    I want a sugar daddy that pays me for not working. Ainge, come holler at me

  23. Has there been an MVP that has played on more teams?

  24. Kapaya-Papaya

    Adding Russell Westbrook is a dark omen for teams fighting to extend their championship window. If you didn’t think it was over before, it is now

  25. 0531Spurs212009

    I cannot wait already for Westbrook to sign w Nuggets

    Westbrook will be Nuggets x factor for upcoming NBA season /and toward to playoffs

  26. BigHornLamb

    I don’t see this working out well at all

  27. Could some other team please pick him up off of waivers? Maybe it’ll work great and I’ll eat crow, but the Nuggets are my favorite team of the last few years and I don’t think Westbrook is their best option.

  28. Careless-Ad-2545

    Wait wtf when did Westbrook go to the Jazz again? I thought he was on the clips!

  29. shadow_spinner0

     Russ got traded out of LA to the Utah Jazz
 TWICE

  30. DrummerBeneficial518

    Dumb question – why do teams waive the player after trading away another player (presumably to drop salary), rather than just trading the received player also? Wouldn’t Utah receive something in return from Denver for Westbrook rather than wasting money paying him out?

    Also slightly slightly related to waiving rules – how come gsw waived cp3 without paying him the full $30m he was owed in the final year? I thought he signed a 120m/4y with phoenix?

  31. travelingoceans

    I wonder if he’s coming off the bench or if he’s starting? Good pickup for the Nuggets

  32. shadow_spinner0

    Russ has to spend his final year of his career in Utah

  33. Another fanbase to try to talk themselves into him, and another fanbase to grow to hate him. Marvelous!
