Los Angeles Clippers add Russell Westbrook, creating a formidable "Big Three"
LOS ANGELES, CA - The Los Angeles Clippers shocked the basketball world today with their announcement that they are adding superstar point guard Russell Westbrook to their roster. The move comes as a surprise to many, as Westbrook was widely expected to join the Lakers after a trade from the Washington Wizards.
Westbrook, a 9-time NBA All-Star and former league MVP, is known for his explosive athleticism and all-around game. He has averaged a triple-double for four seasons, a feat that was once thought impossible. Westbrook has played for several teams throughout his career, including the Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, and Washington Wizards.
The addition of Westbrook to the Clippers' already-talented roster is expected to make them a serious contender in the Western Conference. With Kawhi Leonard and Paul George as his teammates, Westbrook will form a "Big Three" that could rival any other in the league. Clippers fans are thrilled at the prospect of seeing Westbrook in action, and the team's ticket sales are expected to skyrocket.
According to sources close to the team, the Clippers were able to acquire Westbrook in a trade with the Wizards in exchange for a package of players and draft picks. The deal was reportedly finalized just minutes before the NBA trade deadline, and was kept under wraps until today's announcement.
The move is a bold one for the Clippers, who are hoping to win their first-ever NBA championship. With Westbrook now in the mix, their chances of achieving that goal have never been higher.
