Lakers coach Darvin Ham announced the plan before the game to take a precautionary route with Westbrook's injury. The Los Angeles guard is mired in a slump, shooting just 28.9% from the floor. He's 1 of 12 from 3-point range. Westbrook is averaging 10.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.3 assists this season. He has one double-double.
