Los Angeles Clippers point guard Russell Westbrook suffered a fractured left hand during Saturday night’s game against the Washington Wizards, the team announced, per ESPN’s Ohm Youngmisuk.
The injury appeared to occur in the first half of the contest at Crypto.com Arena as the veteran point guard attempted to reach in for a steal on Wizards guard Jordan Poole. Westbrook left the game with 8:10 remaining in the second quarter and did not return.
The Clippers announced his diagnosis a short while later, with L.A. having opened up a sizable third quarter lead over Washington.
