Russell Westbrook had a tough night against the Bucks. He made just 3/11 of his shots and finished the game with 10 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists in 26 minutes of play.
With 9 minutes left to play in the third quarter and the Lakers being down by 24 points Russ made back-to-back turnovers that led to the fans in Crypto.com Arena boo him.
“Sign of respect,” Westbrook smiled when asked about the boo’s. “My mindset and how I think about this game and what I’ve been able to do for this game is not predicated on boo’s.
“I’ve a platform that I’m able to use to to be able to do other things that God has blessed me to be able to do and I will continue to do those things regardless if people boo for me, cheer for me, cuss me out, call me names, it doesn’t really matter.
“The most important part is that I continue to use my gift to be able to play basketball and use that platform to be able to help other people around the world and that’s all I can do and that’s it.”
