Russ Westbrook Sets 72 Ball Screens in 2021-22

Zach, how do you feel about this? If Russell Westbrook is setting screens for Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, he's the role guy. He doesn't want to do it. There is no evidence that he will ever do it in a meaningful volume. But yes, the way to use Russell Westbrook is with four shooters around him. The Clippers can provide that as a screener for apex wing ball handlers who can turn the corner, hit him on the short roll, punish switches. So sure, if he's willing to do those things and minimize all the other damaging stuff, the turnovers, the bad shots, there's a world where he can play with those guys.
