The Lakers face the Nuggets in Denver tonight, and Russell Westbrook is listed as doubtful with an injury, but It’s hard to know what to root for
could replace one problem with another by making less than the best use of the 2027 and 2029 first-round draft picks that they have to trade.
Would any move to unload Westbrook turn them into a contender anyway, given the other issues with the roster and its early-season performance? Twitter user @BoltCountry replied: “I am happy with the play of Khalil Mack, Sebastian JD and also the O-line holding somewhat together for the injuries they’ve had. Unhappy about the inability to make big offensive plays and seemingly resorting to a check-down offense. I understand injuries play a huge part.”
