Russell Westbrook is known for his fashion and terrible 3-point shooting. Both were on display Sunday night.
Westbrook had 10 points on 4-of-15 shooting in the Houston Rockets’ 117-109 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinals playoff series on Sunday night. He went 1-of-7 on threes and committed seven turnovers. He also was a -14 and had an all-around poor game for Houston.
As if his performance weren’t awful enough, Westbrook was dressed in an orange jumpsuit after the game.

Westbrook knows a lot more about fashion than me, so we’ll have to take his word for it that that type of outfit is “in.”
The Rockets can’t have Westbrook falling for the Lakers’ bait by jacking up so many threes in the series. He’s 2-of-12 (16.7%) on threes this season after not taking more than four threes in a game since the season restarted in July.
