Westbrook, 36, is a future Hall of Famer with 17 years of NBA experience. With a resume that includes an MVP, two scoring titles, and nine All-Star appearances, Russ was once one of the league's top point guards, but age, injuries, and the evolution of the game have drastically decreased his value.

Westbrook has still shown that he is capable of his role, despite being about to enter his 18th NBA season, and pairing him alongside Jalen Brunson inside Madison Square Garden could be just what the future Hall of Famer needs in the waning years of his career, whether they share the court or Westbrook is used as a substitute.

As we near September, future Hall of Famer and former league MVP Russell Westbrook remains a free agent. While it’s not unusual for a 36-year-old to still be unsigned this late, Westbrook averaged a solid 13.3 points, 6.1 assists, and 4.9 rebounds last season.
