Russell Westbrook's agent, Thad Foucher, helped restart talks between the Washington Wizards and Houston Rockets this week, according to Adrian Wojnarowski on ESPN.
The two sides hadn't discussed a Westbrook for John Wall trade for several weeks, but talks moved quickly this week.
Both Westbrook and Wall were motivated for a trade to the other team.
Westbrook also sought a trade from the Oklahoma City Thunder during the 2019 offseason.
