Russell said that mentally he felt better immediately.

Los Angeles Clippers were eliminated in the 1st round of the playoffs against the Phoenix Suns after 5 matches, but Russell Westbrook was phenomenal in the series and did all he could for his team.

Brodie said the Lakers and Clippers trade was very good for him.

“Once, I got traded. Immediately, to be honest,” Russ said in a sport how to the question when he felt relaxed again. “From that moment, honestly, mentally, I was in a better place.”

Westbrook joined LA Lakers at the beginning of 2021-22, but in his 1st season, the franchise from Los Angeles didn’t even finish in the top 10 in the Western Conference and missed the playoffs.

After his trade to the other NBA franchise that plays at Staples Center, we saw the old Westbrook as he played fantastic against the Suns without Paul George and Kawhi Leonard.
