Westbrook: From Lakers' bench to Clippers' starter

LOS ANGELES: Russell Westbrook not only switched locker rooms at Crypto.com Arena. He went from being on the bench to a return to the starting lineup.

Los Angeles Clippers coach Tyronn Lue didn't waste much time seeing how well Westbrook would mesh with his new team. The eight-time All-Star signed after he cleared waivers on Wednesday and was the starting point guard Friday (Saturday in Manila) in a game against the Sacramento Kings.
