Lakers' Russell Westbrook: Injures thumb, X-rays negative

Westbrook had his right thumb evaluated following Sunday's win over the Spurs and left the arena with a wrap on his hand, Dave McMenamin of ESPN reports.

Westbrook was clearly favoring his thumb during the second half of Sunday's 123-92 win, which he finished with 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt), 10 assists and four rebounds in 22 minutes off the bench. After the game, head coach Darvin Ham revealed that the guard underwent an X-ray. While the results came back negative, Westbrook will undergo further evaluation by team doctors Monday. For now, consider Westbrook day-to-day heading into a three-game week for the Lakers, which begins Tuesday at Phoenix.
