Will we see Russell Westbrook with the Denver Nuggets again next season, or will he move on to yet another team?
It seems that he is going to test his chances with free agency, so he could go in any direction.
According to Marc Stein, Westbrook will decline his player option for next season and become an unrestricted free agent on June 30.

During his season with the Nuggets, Westbrook put up 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 6.1 assists.
He started in 36 of his 75 games and, at times, was a huge help for the team.
However, he also made mistakes and showed that some of his bad habits remain.
A loss of Westbrook would probably get a mixed reaction from Nuggets fans, with some hoping he will stay and others happy to see him leave.
Over the years, he has bounced around the league, playing for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, Washington Wizards, Los Angeles Lakers, and the Los Angeles Clippers.
It looked like he could settle down with the Nuggets, but he is now going to see what else is out there.
He may end up sticking around in Denver, but there is a chance that he packs his bag and tries his luck at another location.
No matter where he goes, fans will be curious and somewhat nervous about how he will perform.
Westbrook has been the definition of a mixed bag over the last few years, and people are wondering what version will show up next season.
