Russell Westbrook Requests To Come Off Clippers BenchRussell Westbrook Requests To Come Off Clippers Bench
Russell Westbrook has reportedly asked Ty Lue to come off the bench for the LA Clippers. Westbrook’s hope is that this move will help the Clippers find some continuity with their starting lineup.
In the wake of the James Harden trade, the Clippers are 0-5 and have lost six straight games overall. LA’s offense has been uneven and has lacked spacing at time with their new starting lineup.
Westbrook came off the bench in 49 games for the Los Angles Lakers last season, before being traded to and bought out by the Utah Jazz. That was Westbrook’s first run of games as a reserve since his rookie season with the Oklahoma City Thunder in 2008-09.
Alongside the monstrous basketball programs playing in the Maui Invitational is the DII Chaminade University Silverswords. Rather than sweating their ranked opponents, though, the Silverswords see the challenge as an opportunity in the spotlight — and a chance to pull off something unimaginable.
