Jeremy Sochan may end up regretting what he said, especially if he ends up being teammates with Russell Westbrook next season. Westbrook has been linked with a potential move to San Antonio.

Rumors initially suggested that Westbrook could be involved in a trade package to bring Kyrie Irving to the Lakers. Unfortunately for LA, the Nets have shown no interest in acquiring Westbrook.

In this regard, the San Antonio Spurs have emerged as an interested party.

If a trade does happen, Sochan will certainly hope that Westbrook does not hold grudges and the matter is soon forgotten.
