Russell Westbrook
In the event that Bradley Beal is traded by the Washington Wizards, Russell Westbrook isn’t going to want to be a lone wolf on a team that is going anywhere. Last offseason, everyone thought Westbrook wouldn’t be able to be traded due to his contract.
Contrary to that belief, Westbrook was traded to Washington in exchange for John Wall. Following a slow start to the season, Russell Westbrook would record his fourth season of averaging a triple-double, showing he’s still a force to be reckoned with in the NBA.
Westbrook’s fearless demeanor can rub people the wrong way, but he’s focused on winning basketball games for whoever he’s suiting up for.
Even if Beal stays on the Wizards, there’s no guarantee that Russell Westbrook returns to Washington for another year, especially with Brooks no longer at the helm.

Regardless of Beal’s status, Westbrook is potentially the most likely superstar to be traded. Of course, a trade involving Beal this offseason would certainly increase the odds of Russell Westbrook being moved.
