In his second game of the season, Russell Westbrook continued his slow start, shooting 0-for-11 from the field and scoring only two points on free throws. It was the continuation of an awkward situation for a player who is publicly frustrated with his role on the team.
After the game, Lakers forward LeBron James explained what his advice was to Westbrook after such a rough night.
“Flush it down the toilet; get ready for Sunday,” he said. “We’ve all had bad shooting nights, I’ve had bad shooting nights, everybody in this league has had bad shooting nights. Who cares?”
