47 million maximum salary is no one cares about it. The most lost person this summer is released! Team remembers unfairly: extremely ridiculous

Time is coming to late July. During the 2025 NBA offseason, the arms race between the teams has eased slightly.
In this arms race, many old stars and new generation stars have been renewed by their parents' team or found new jobs from other teams.
Simply put, this summer, many big contracts have been born in the NBA.
For example, the Thunder spent hundreds of millions of dollars in the offseason and renewed the team's new "three young men" Alexander, Chett and Jaylen Williams with three maximum salary contracts. Among the
Middle-zodiac stars, Devin Booker signed a maximum salary renewal contract with the Suns in advance. Among the old stars, the Clippers completed a contract renewal with Harden; the Mavericks also completed a contract renewal with Irving.
Even some old stars who are on the verge of retirement can find a job. For example, Paul just signed a one-year, $3.6 million contract extension with the Clippers, which may be the last season before retirement.
At the same time, some people have been glorious, but now they are in their twilight years of their careers, it is difficult to find a job in the NBA.
Westbrook, this is the case.
Westbrook played for the Nuggets last season, and this summer he jumped out of his last year contract and entered the free market, hoping to find a better contract.
However, so far, Westbrook has not been signed by any team.
Today, Nuggets reporter Miroslav Ćuk posted a message on social media about Westbrook.
Miroslav Ćuk wrote: "As of today, no NBA team wants to sign Westbrook, which is ridiculous. Although I can only guess, I think Westbrook is just purely eager to play and compete, which should be suitable for the needs of most teams."
"At the same time, the trend of blindly younger teams is pushing many outstanding players out of the league. The team does not want Westbrook because his existence will make the team win. That's crazy." Miroslav Ćuk added.
According to previous reports, the Bucks and the Knicks had an interest in Westbrook.
However, whether intentional or intentional, neither team gave Westbrook a contract, which may indicate that Westbrook really has no market in the current NBA league.
Westbrook used to be a superstar with an annual salary of US$47 million, with a maximum salary, and a huge MVP. However, in just a few years, he has been so neglected in the free market, which is still a heartbreaking thing.
The down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken. Westbrook may have felt the coldness of the world now.
Actually, there is nothing we can do about it. Competitive sports always speak based on strength. Westbrook could fly and escape when he was young, and his style of playing was explosive, but his lack of stable shooting, basketball IQ was not top-notch, etc., etc., which became very serious when he got older, and became a key obstacle to his job search.
Westbrook is only 36 years old, not as old as Paul, but no one wants the basic salary. Look at Harden and Durant, both of whom are about the same age. Durant is still a superstar. Harden can still get an annual salary of $40 million from the Clippers. This is the gap.
Age is the enemy of anyone, and no matter how powerful a star is, he cannot escape the ruthlessness of time! Westbrook has been glorious, won a lot of big contracts, and gained countless honors. In fact, he is a true winner in life.
Next step, I believe Westbrook can find a job, the key is to see what kind of mentality he has to deal with a brand new positioning.
Having said that, Westbrook would have known this, he might as well execute his contract for next season. He would continue to play in the Nuggets for a year, and he might still have a chance to win the championship.
