DeAngelo Russell, Westbrook and Mike Connelly (Reuters)
Are we headed for a big trade less than 24 hours before the deadline for transfers? The Los Angeles Lakers, Utah Jazz and Minnesota Timberwolves are in discussions about a three-way trade, according to the two top NBA reporters Shams Charnia and Adrian Wojnarowski.
According to the two, LeBron James’ team will transfer none other than Russell Westbrook to the Jazz, will receive DeAngelo Russell who will return, if the move goes through, for a second term in the club from LA, with Mike Conley being the third leg in the transfer and he He will join the team of Karl Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards.
In any case, Westbrook is not expected to stay in Salt Lake City, but to accept a buyout and look for another destination. Those who are still expected to take part in the trade are Malik Beasley and Jared Vanderbilt, who are supposed to stay in the West and team up with Anthony Davis and, of course, King James.
