Scott Perry “Russell’s always welcome with me.
Russell Westbrook said the other day that he enjoyed his time here in Sacramento, and he said he’d welcome being back. So I guess, first of all, is he welcome back? And what were your impressions of him as a leader on this team?
” Scott Perry “Russell’s always welcome with me. I loved working with Russell Westbrook this year. He was phenomenal.
I can’t say enough. Obviously, I talked about Doug’s leadership and his ability to help the young people, but a lot of that development doesn’t happen without guys like Russell, Deebo, and Doug McDermott. All of these veteran guys poured into our young people, and Russ was at the head of the class for that.
He’s extremely competitive. I wish I had an opportunity to work with Russell earlier in my career as well, because I really like what he stands for. Again, we will keep the lines of communication open, and we will see what happens and what’s available to us this offseason.
