The NBA offseason never takes a night off and Thursday was no exception with the reported bombshell Russell Westbrook-Chris Paul trade which was first reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski:
The Oklahoma City Thunder have agreed to trade Russell Westbrook to the Houston Rockets for Chris Paul, first-round picks in 2024 and 2026, pick swaps in 2021 and 2025, league sources tell ESPN.
