NBA Insider Suggests Bold Career Shift For Russell Westbrook
Westbrook is one of only two players in NBA history to maintain an average of a triple-double over an entire season. He achieved this remarkable feat four times and currently holds the record for the most career triple-doubles in the league. However, the Nuggets point guard is still often criticized for his performances. Recently, an anonymous NBA insider suggested that Westbrook should consider retiring.
“They need to cut Russ. He can’t shoot. They have no spacing when he’s on the court. Teams are literally daring him to shoot and just crowding Jokic in the paint. And when he drives to the rim, he gets so deep and out of position that he can’t hit layups. Russ needs to retire. He’s not a good player anymore.” An NBA Insider told Hoops Wire.
It would be incredible for his fans if Westbrook could silence the critics by delivering stellar performances in the upcoming matchups.
