Westbrook reviewed being traded to the Lakers: This feeling is crazy, all memories come to mind

Westbrook recently reviewed his feelings after being traded to the Lakers in 2021 in a documentary.

Westbrook said: "This feeling is so crazy. I grew up in Los Angeles. The first thing I think of is the game between the Lakers and Kobe. All these memories come to my mind, as if I have returned to my original appearance. This feeling is really crazy."

In the 2021 offseason, the Lakers sent out chips such as Kuzma and Pope, and exchanged Westbrook from the Wizards for Westbrook, thus forming a Big Three lineup of James + Westbrook + Anthony Davis, becoming a favorite to the championship. However, during his time with the Lakers, Westbrook played 130 games, averaging 17.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1 steal, with a shooting percentage of 43.4%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 29.7%. The efficiency of all data has declined significantly. The Lakers also failed to make the playoffs in his first season of joining. In the mid-22-23 season, the Lakers traded Westbrook to the Jazz in a three-party trade, in exchange for Beasley, Vanderbilt and others.
