NextImg:Clippers’ Russell Westbrook exits with broken left hand in win over Wizards

LOS ANGELES — Russell Westbrook fractured his left hand in the first half of the Los Angeles Clippers’ 140-115 win over the Washington Wizards on Friday night.

Westbrook, who had six points and one assist in 10 minutes off the bench, appeared to sustain the injury trying to poke the ball away from Jordan Poole with 10:01 left in the second.

Westbrook left with 8:10 remaining in the second quarter and did not return.

The 35-year-old — who previously played for the Thunder, Rockets, Wizards and Lakers has played in every game for the Clippers this season — averaging 11.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 23 minutes.

He had moved to the bench following the Nov. 1 trade for James Harden but remained an important part of the lineup as the Clippers chase their first NBA title.

James Harden scored 21 of his 28 points in the second quarter to lead the Clippers to victory.

Kawhi Leonard added 27 points and Paul George scored 22 in his return after missing two games because of a knee injury.
