Transaction

The Sacramento Kings have signed veteran guard Russell Westbrook to a one-year contract valued at $3.6 million, as reported by ESPN’s Shams Charania. Westbrook will bolster a crowded backcourt that includes Dennis Schroder, Malik Monk, and Keon Ellis, yet the signing does little to address the Kings’ frontcourt needs following Keegan Murray’s injury. While Westbrook’s fantasy value remains unclear, his addition could impact the minutes and production of his backcourt teammates.
