Russell Westbrook has parted ways with the LA Clippers. He will now pursue his chances of winning a ring with the Denver Nuggets.
Nikola Jokic and DeAndre Jordan were even excited to welcome Westbrook into the team. While Jokic is obviously the team's soul, Jordan’s influence also weighs in on the decision to bring Westbrook to Denver.
Denver Reveals Why Westbrook
Russell Westbrook has been nothing short of an incredible player. He has proven himself to be a dominant player throughout his entire career.
Many were surprised when Westbrook moved from the LA Clippers to the Denver Nuggets. They wondered what this meant and how Westbrook would be a great addition to the team.
The Nuggets said they hope to instill Westbrook’s experience and leadership in the team. They also wanted to highlight Westbrook’s skillset, which could create great plays combined with Nikola Jokic’s. The Nuggets hope that this duo could dominate the NBA.
How Nuggets and Westbrook Can Make Their Way To The Top
While Westbrook is way past his prime, he’s still undeniably a great addition to Denver’s current roster. His skills and experience are things that the line-up really needs to be a championship contender.
Westbrook is looking to fill a hole for the Nuggets with his rim pressure skills. He can penetrate a defense and score points for the team. While Jokic and Murray are great players, their dribble penetration abilities were not as good as Westbrook’s.
It’s also good to mention that Russell Westbrook has quite an attitude on the court. He’s a player that believes he’s the best among every point guard in the league. While that’s debatable, a confident man who backs down to nobody is someone to fear.
If Russell Westbrook creates a good dynamic with his teammates in the Denver Nuggets, he might just be able to fill the void Caldwell-Pope and Bruce Brown left. Westbrook has skills and experience that can help the roster thrive, but the Nuggets also raise his chances of winning an NBA Championship with the team he has today.
