The NBA season is less than two weeks away and Russell Westbrook remains unsigned, but the veteran point guard reportedly isn’t considering playing overseas just yet.

According to NBA insider Marc Stein, Westbrook has had “zero discussion” about gauging interest from teams abroad, but “securing his next NBA opportunity has been the focus for Westbrook’s camp.”

Westbrook, 36, spent the 2024-25 campaign with the Denver Nuggets, where he played a key role off the bench as he put up 13.3 points, 6.1 assists and 4.9 rebounds per game.

He had the chance to return to Denver for the 2025-26 season, but instead chose not to exercise his $3.5 million contract option and entered free agency. Former NBA player Danny Green said on his podcast last week that Westbrook declined his player option because the Nuggets didn’t plan to include him in the rotation.

There was some reported interest in Westbrook early this offseason as teams looked for point guards, but many of those teams have since filled those roles. One team reportedly is still eyeing him, however.

ESPN’s Shams Charania reported last week that “there is strong mutual interest between” the Sacramento Kings and Westbrook, which could give him a place to call home before the start of the season.

But even if Westbrook goes unsigned through the start of the season, teams will inevitably need a point guard once injuries begin taking a toll, so the odds that Westbrook isn’t in the NBA at some point this year seem slim.
