Westbrook complained himself About the way his fans treated him. Reports indicated that there are Players on the team I felt the team needed to move—maybe including stars LeBron James And the Anthony Davis. And now, according to Bill Oram, Athletic player, Sam AmecThe team’s coaching staff reportedly pushed for the Westbrook deal on the deadline as well.

The Lakers have reportedly discussed deals with Houston Rocketsbut they were not ready to give up a large capital project for John Wallwho did not play this season.
Now the coaching staff and Westbrook are left to work through the fallout from those non-commercial businesses.

He didn’t do any of those things, and he and Vogel reportedly He had a tense confrontation During a recent movie session.
