The Los Angeles Lakers are expected to bring guard Russell Westbrook off the bench vs. Minnesota tonight, allowing him to play more as the primary playmaker for the second unit, sources tell ESPN.

Westbrook's status could be impacted by Anthony Davis' game-time decision on his back. If Davis is out, that could keep Westbrook in the starting lineup, sources said.

ok, so we bring WB off the bench and would start him in place of AD, a 6"11 center???
so Lebron guards Gobert and LViii guards KAT?

If AD can't play they better start Gabriel and keep RW as backup. Don't deviate from your plan for Russ, Ham.

LeBron James (left foot soreness) and Russell Westbrook (left hamstring soreness) will both play.

Great, now we lose even MORE size. Wenyan should get some playing time along with Bron and D.Jones along with our small guards..

We lose our only non LeBron size who’s even rotation caliber. Good thing we shoot lights out, otherwise I’d be worried…

LeBron won’t kill himself trying to save this team and he shouldn’t. All off season I wanted Turner or another competent big man because AD is always injured. Now look

I don't even really buy this anymore.. It's a tired excuse in 2022 and AD is going to fall awkwardly 5 times a game regardless of whether he plays PG or C and is going to continue to be injury prone. Sure, if he goes against one of the very few banging centers left in the entire League I agree I guess but that's becoming more rare by the year. AD is a great talent, no doubt but he can't be relied upon whatsoever for even the majority of a Season anymore and is already heading out of his prime when you look at some of his tape from just 3-4 years ago.
