Suffers left hand fracture Westbrook exited Friday's matchup with the Wizards after suffering a left hand fracture, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact Westbrook tallied six points (1-3 FG), four rebounds and one steal across 10 minutes prior to sustaining the injury. It is unclear at this time what his recovery timeline will look like. Should the veteran point guard indeed miss time, Bones Hyland would presumably be the prime beneficiary, while Terance Mann and Norman Powell could also see an increase in minutes.

Rough shooting night in loss Westbrook posted eight points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, three steals and two rebounds in the Clippers' 116-112 loss to the Lakers on Wednesday.
Impact Despite a poor night shooting, the 2016-17 MVP chipped in three steals to the defensive effort, a significant contribution compared to the one steal he has averaged coming off of the bench. Westbrook played 17 minutes Wednesday, a decline from the 22.3 minutes he has been averaging in the month of February. In Paul George's brief absence (knee), Terance Mann has averaged 26.8 minutes, with sixth-man Norman Powell averaging 26.6 minutes as well. With George expected to return back to the lineup soon, expect the 35-year-old's playing time to decline as Mann and Powell continue to receive significant opportunities.
