Derek Fisher Accidentally Calls Russell Westbrook ‘Russell Westbrick’ On Live TV

Ever since Russell Westbrook was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers, there have been concerns about how Westbrook would fit in their rotation, considering his nagging issues on the offensive end, as well as playing alongside LeBron James who shares a similar role as him in terms of being a lead ball-handler.

But after a slow start, Westbrook has been able to put together a couple for pretty great games in these past two weeks and seems to be getting more and more comfortable in his hometown.

While he never will be a very efficient player, he’s able to help the team in other ways. One of his Laker point guard predecessors, Derek Fisher, now had a Freudian slip on live TV. Fisher accidentally called Westbrook by his unfortunate social-media-meme-nickname ‘Westbrick’.
