Russell Westbrook erupted with an efficient performance against his former team LA Lakers on Sunday. The Sacramento Kings' veteran point guard played with his trademark energy and even recorded a couple of huge highlight-worthy plays. At one point, Westbrook put Lakers forward Jake LaRavia, who is on a $12,000,000 contract, on skates with a diabolical move.
The former league MVP hit LaRavia with a nasty crossover and left the Lakers star in a complete blender. Westbrook showcased his dazzling handles and lightning-quick footwork to leave LaRavia in the shadows. He even appeared to mock the Lakers forward with a noticeable expression before capping the play with an effortless layup.
The video of Westbrook's jaw-dropping play went instantly viral across social media platforms. NBA fans dropped candid reactions and made their feelings crystal clear on the veteran guard's highlight play.
