Miami Heat Receive: Russell Westbrook

Houston Rockets Receive: Kendrick Nunn, Duncan Robinson, Andre Igoudala, Kelly Olynyk, No. 20 Pick

A Russell Westbrook trade would not come cheap for the Miami Heat. Luckily, they have some pieces they could throw in, including players on expiring contracts. Overall, it would be a way to bolster the supporting cast around James Harden.

Miami would be able to throw in veteran players like Andre Igoudala and Kelly Olynyk. They are not part of the future for the Heat so it would not be difficult to part ways. Kendrick Nunn and Duncan Robinson are productive players but you will have to give something up to get Westbrook.

Any deal involving Westbrook would send shockwaves throughout the NBA. Let’s take a look at how this deal would work from both the perspective of the Houston Rockets and Miami Heat.
