Why is Westbrook playing for the Nuggets next season still unknown? It is expected to jump out of the contract and wait and see what it is

In fact, for most NBA players, when it is difficult to gain a foothold in the NBA at the end of their career, instead of getting a veteran’s basic salary and sitting next to the water dispenser, it is better to go overseas to kill and kill in other basketball leagues, and earn a considerable salary.
Last summer, didn't Beverly reject the veteran's basic salary contract between the Houston Rockets and the Detroit Pistons and instead joined the Israeli basketball powerhouse Harpool Tel Aviv Club.
But for a long-standing star, even if the hero is old and has been staggering, he is now staggering, but letting him put down his figure and leave the NBA league is not an easy task!
stars are pride, for them, they would rather accept their martyrs in the NBA than dominate the league with a lower competitive level.
Perhaps this is why we still firmly believe that Westbrook will still compete in the NBA next season!
Unknown to me, next season is the 18th season of Westbrook's career. This triple-double king is now an absolute veteran in the league.
Famous generals have been like beauties since ancient times, and they are not allowed to see white hair on earth.
But time finally makes people grow old, and we must admit that Westbrook is no longer an omnipotent star on the court, at most a qualified rotation player in the NBA team.
Westbrook played 75 regular season games for the Nuggets this season, averaging 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game, shooting percentage of 44.9%, three-point shooting percentage of 32.3%, and free throw shooting percentage of 66.1%, with a moderate performance.
Westbrook played 13 games in the playoffs, averaging 11.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game, shooting percentage of 39.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 31.7%, and free throw shooting percentage of 70%. His performance is worthy of his contract salary, and even far worth the money!
Next season, Westbrook holds a player option worth $3.46 million. If he chooses the execution option, he will likely play in the Nuggets, but it is not ruled out that the possibility of being traded by the Nuggets in the future.
Another possibility is that Westbrook has a high probability of re-signing a team. Perhaps he has finished his last Nuggets game now.
The basic salary of veterans in the new season is higher than 3.46 million yuan. There is no doubt that Westbrook's signing a new contract is a more reasonable choice, right?
Westbrook has been playing in the NBA for 17 seasons, from the Thunder to the Rockets, and then to the Wizards, Lakers, Clippers, and now the Nuggets. Westbrook has been wandering in recent years and has a worrying situation.
Looking at Westbrook's entire career, he averaged 21.2 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists per game. He was selected as the All-Star in 9 career times and 9 best teams. Among them, he was elected as the regular season MVP in the 2016-17 season, which is unsuccessful.
Previously, European basketball giant Hapoel Tel Aviv planned to generously offer Westbrook a sky-high contract, attracting him to his boss with an unprecedented high-paying contract in European basketball history...
Interestingly, Westbrook updated his social media to post a black and white back, and wrote that he was a force of nature and completed 17 seasons. He is grateful for this continued journey, and the 18th season is about to set off.
Which team suit Westbrook wore in his 18th season is also worth looking forward to...
