Russell Westbrook Shoots Down Lakers Fan's Recruiting Pitch

Kyle NewportNov 17, 2014

Things are so bad for the Los Angeles Lakers right now that the team's fans are recruiting players who won't even hit the market for a couple of years. Some fans even go to games in which their team isn't playing to try to woo players.

On Sunday, a Lakers fan attended the Oklahoma City Thunder's game against the Houston Rockets. While there, the fan decided to pitch the Lakers to injured Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook—who is signed through the 2016-17 season.

Westbrook wasn't interested in the fan's recruiting pitch.

Any Lakers fan who wants Westbrook in purple and gold starting in 2017 better come up with an improved recruiting pitch within the next three years.
