An “increasing number” of people around the NBA think the Thunder should consider trading Russell Westbrook, according to ESPN’s Zach Lowe.

Westbrook, who has five years and $205 million left on his deal, has led the Thunder to consecutive first-round playoff exits.

“There’s an increasing number of people around the League who think the Thunder should look at trading [Russell] Westbrook. “To be clear, not a report. Not Thunder sources think they should do this. “Just in spitballing ideas with teams around the League, there’s a number of people who have heard, ‘It’s time for something to change here.’”
