Russell Westbrook has made his decision, and he will stay in Los Angeles after getting traded by the Lakers and getting bought out by the Utah Jazz. Westbrook will be joining the Los Angeles Clippers, as confirmed by Adrian Wojnarowski, in their bid to finally win a championship in the Kawhi Leonard and Paul George era.
The Los Angeles Clippers were very interested in having Westbrook on board, with Paul George making it quite obvious that the players approved of acquiring him. Russell Westbrook may not be the player he once was, but he is a beast nonetheless, averaging 16 points, over 6 rebounds, and over 7 assists per game this season.
This was when he didn’t even fit too well on the Lakers, but he should fit better on the Clippers. The franchise views him as a starter alongside Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, which should also do wonders for his confidence. And while there are obvious question marks around him still, a lot of fans think this was the final piece the Clippers needed to make it all the way.

The Los Angeles Clippers wanted Russell Westbrook, and having him is going to make a huge difference for them. If Paul George and Kawhi Leonard can stay healthy, Westbrook might just prove to be the ideal 3rd star for the team. And if they can unlock his abilities, the Clippers might just win a championship like some seem to think after all.
