Russell Westbrook's Status vs. Grizzlies Revealed

Russell Westbrook is not on the Clippers vs. Grizzlies injury report

The LA Clippers are hosting the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday afternoon in a battle of two teams desperately needing wins. The Grizzlies enter this game 1-8 on the season, owning the worst record in basketball. While things are not quite as bad for LA, they have dropped four-straight games, including three-straight with James Harden.

The Clippers have released their injury report for his game, and they will have veteran guard Russell Westbrook available for this afternoon's matchup. Westbrook will be celebrating his 35th birthday on Sunday, and will look to lead the Clippers to a much needed win.

With how this season has gone for Memphis, they are certainly a team the Clippers should beat. Starting 1-8 without Ja Morant, who remains suspended through game 25, the Grizzlies are down their best player and several other key pieces. While Memphis will be getting Morant back, starting center Steven Adams is out for the season, and backup big man Brandon Clarke is likely out for the year as well.

The Clippers started 0-5 after signing Russell Westbrook last season, and snapped their skid at home against a shorthanded Grizzlies team. Now entering a home game vs. the shorthanded Grizzlies, the Clippers will look to snap their losing streak to begin the Harden era.

The Clippers and Grizzlies will begin at 12:30 PM PST in Los Angeles.
