Israeli Club GM: It s crazy to say that Westbrook is quoting 5000w, and we are not interested and no one is looking for him

June 17, according to European basketball reporter Nemanja Zoric, sources revealed that European Cup champion Hapur Basketball Club in Tel Aviv plans to provide Westbrook with an unprecedented salary in European basketball history.

Recently, George Hinas, general manager of the club, clarified the denied in an interview with a reporter from BasketballSphere. He said that the rumors about Westbrook were completely fabricated and a by-product of the club's growing popularity:

"This is definitely fake news. The rumors say that we quoted $50 million a year, which is crazy. I understand that the outside world is concerned because our team has invested money in signings."

Then he quipped, "I counted it and there were 37 players in contact with us. Fortunately, we had three teams, which was good, because with 37 players, it was much easier to arrange things."

Then, he said, "But to be honest, this is not true. We are not interested at all, and no one is looking for him."

As for Tel Aviv Hapur, although there were many speculation comments during the offseason, the focus was on more realistic and achievable goals.

This season, Westbrook's salary in the Nuggets was $3.3 million, and he averaged 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.4 steals per game.
