The Knicks become Westbrook s potential next home! It is expected to serve as New York commander and may face the best opportunity to win the first championship

On September 7, the NBA entered the offseason. According to BR reporter Andy Bailey, the Knicks are likely to become the next home of Westbrook, who is currently a free agent, and pointed out that Westbrook can serve as the stadium commander to help the Knicks better compete for the NBA championship.

Westbrook refused to execute the Nuggets' 2025-26 season player option this summer to become a free agent. According to previous reports, the Kings, Heat, Knicks and Bucks are considered Westbrook's potential next home. However, since the trading market opened, although Westbrook has been rumored to have several teams, it has not signed a contract so far.

In response to this, Andy Bailey said that the Knicks are likely to become Westbrook's next home. The Knicks solved the lack of depth in the backcourt by signing Jordan Clarkson, who was recently bought out, but they were interested in Westbrook in July and he still helped the team's organizational offense. Especially in a lineup with many shooters such as Towns, Bridges and OG, Westbrook's ability to break through to the basket can be extremely threatening. Westbrook may be partnering with Clarkson and McBride in the second team. If he joins, his role in the team may be cut compared to before.

Meanwhile, 37-year-old Westbrook still has the opportunity to compete for his first championship. After losing to the Pacers in the Eastern Conference in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks are among the top teams in the competitive Eastern Conference. This experienced point guard will be very suitable for partnering with the team’s excellent shooters. While striving for the championship, Westbrook was able to serve as the stadium commander while Brunson was resting on the bench.
