Nuggets' Russell Westbrook leaves Game 3 vs. Clippers with concerning injury |

25/04/2025 06:10 -

Denver Nuggets point guard Russell Westbrook was ruled questionable to return to Game 3 against the Los Angeles Clippers due to left foot inflammation, according to the team. ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne reported Westbrook was getting treatment in the locker room after seemingly suffering the injury in the second quarter.

Given the Nuggets are getting blown out, it’s likely Westbrook is done for the night. The veteran guard had a rough go of it in nine minutes of action before exiting, scoring just three points on 1-of-5 shooting. Denver was outscored by 16 points in Russ’ time on the floor.

Unsurprisingly, it has been a roller-coaster ride for Russell Westbrook in this series. The guard made some huge plays in the Nuggets’ Game 1 overtime victory, though he also had some wild mishaps that almost cost them. He had 14 points in the heartbreaking Game 2 loss.
