Russell Westbrook signs with the Sacramento Kings on a veteran minimum, anchoring a guard rotation that already includes Dennis Schröder while Sacramento continues to tinker its lineups after last season's Fox trade. Westbrook averaged 13.3 points, 6.1 assists and 4.9 rebounds for Denver last season and remains a high-usage playmaker. The Kings added depth behind a crowded backcourt that features Monk, Ellis and a handful of youngsters as they prepare for the Oct. 22 opener against Phoenix.
