The Lakers believe that Westbrook's effect is not as good as expected Earlier, they secretly revealed that they wanted to trade it

According to Sam Amick, sources revealed that the Lakers showed some hidden interest when talking with competitors earlier this season about the potential trading possibilities of Westbrook.

Sam Amick said sending Westbrook before the February trading deadline seemed highly unlikely because his oversized contract was seen by many as untradable. Within the Lakers, it seems that to a certain extent, the effect of Westbrook's joining is not as good as expected.

So far this season, Westbrook has averaged 35.8 minutes per game, 19.5 points, 8.1 rebounds and 8.1 assists.
