Russell Westbrook's Honest Statement After Clippers vs. Warriors
The LA Clippers completed an impressive comeback against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night, earning a bug win entering the All-Star break. Clippers guard Russell Westbrook was a huge piece in the comeback effort, scoring 10 points in the fourth quarter to go along with 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, and several big hustle plays.
Westbrook started this game just 2/7 from the field, but was able to impact the game in every possible way down the stretch. Speaking exclusively with AllClippers after the game, Westbrook was asked about his ability to impact winning even after shots aren't falling early in a game.
"Being able to impact the game, impact winning by doing different things. A lot of people get caught up in scoring, scoring, scoring. That’s not the only way you win basketball games. Defending, being in the right spot, getting extra possessions, making the right passes. For me, I’m an all around player. I do everything on the floor to impact winning. My confidence never wavers. You’re gonna miss and make shots, that’s part of the game. That never deters me from playing hard."
This has been the case several times this season for Westbrook, where he is able to impact winning after starting slow from the field. This was a huge win for the Clippers, who enter the break with some momentum.
