LOOK: Former Lakers Star Comments On Russell Westbrook's Instagram Post
Recently, nine-time NBA All-Star Russell Westbrook made a post to Instagram.

There were thousands of likes and comments on the post, and one of the people who commented was Kent Bazemore.

The two were teammates this past season on the Los Angeles Lakers.
Bazemore averaged 3.8 points and 1.4 rebounds per contest, while Westbrook put up 18.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.1 assists.
The Lakers had been expected to be a contender for an NBA Championship, but they went just 33-49 and finished as the 11th seed in the Western Conference.
Therefore, they missed the NBA Playoffs and play-in tournament, which was a major surprise.
The San Antonio Spurs and New Orleans Pelicans beat them out for the two play-in spots.
A team with Westbrook, LeBron James and Anthony Davis had been expected to do much better.
Shams Charania of The Athletic recently reported that Bazemore agreed to a deal to join the Sacramento Kings.
Charania: "Free agent forward Kent Bazemore has agreed to a one-year deal with the Sacramento Kings, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium."
As for Westbrook, he opted into the final year of his contract that will pay him $47.1 million next season.
