The Nuggets Westbrook s next odds are the Nets first, and Lake Yong tied!

On May 21, the US media updated the next odds of active Nuggets guard Westbrook (if Westbrook leaves the team). Among all the teams on the list, the top three are:

1. Nets: +600

2. Magic: +700

3. Jazz: +800

Surprisingly, the Lakers and Warriors, which have a huge fan base, did not make it. As the popular choice for Westbrook's next team, they both ranked last in odds, both of which are +2500

} It is not difficult to see through the odds that among all the teams listed by the US media, even the Nets, which have the best odds, still have a generous return of up to +600 (if you bet 100, you will win 600). Does this mean that staying in the Nuggets will still be Westbrook's first choice next season?

In-depth analysis of Westbrook's contract details: The 36-year-old veteran has only one last year left in his contract with the Nuggets, and he must decide whether to execute the $3.47 million player option before June 29 this year. Otherwise, he will become a free agent.

This season, Westbrook averaged 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game in the regular season. To be honest, his performance on the field is already much higher than his current contract value ($3.47 million). Especially in the first round of the playoffs, Westbrook played an important role as the "Clippers Terminator" almost throughout the whole process. Without his amazing performance, it would be difficult for the Nuggets to advance to the second round!

Therefore, the author boldly speculates that the key element that can determine whether Westbrook leaves the team at present - that is, the attitude of the Nuggets management! Whether they will redesign a more decent contract extension for Westbrook during the offseason based on Westbrook's outstanding performance throughout the year will directly determine whether Westbrook will stay or not!

If a new contract is provided, then Westbrook has no reason to leave the team. Because whether it is the tacit understanding of teammates, personal performance, and role positioning, the overall running-in between Westbrook and the Nuggets has gradually improved!

But if not, the author believes that the possibility of Westbrook leaving the team will be greatly improved! After all, Westbrook, who has become one of the team's main rotation players, would be a bit shabby for this former MVP if he only gets a basic salary of several million.
