Skip Bayless said, “What this boils down to is Jeanie Buss’ resentment over the fact that she gave in to LeBron & AD, who pushed hard for her to get Westbrook.” It was reported that the Lakers tried to get in Buddy Hield from the Washington Wizards but ended up signing Russell Westbrook. It happened because Lakers duo LeBron James and Anthony Davis pushed Jeanie to acquire Russell instead.

There is still a big question mark over Russell Westbrook’s future with the Los Angeles Lakers. Many rumors surfaced of him being traded to other NBA teams, but none proved true. It is even being said that the Lakers coach Darvin Ham has a suitable role for Russell Westbrook, but only time will tell where Westbrook ends up for the upcoming NBA season.
