It’s very important to understand the difference between name calling and “telling one’s truth.” It’s even more important when you have a platform and a network to share your “truths” with millions of people. It requires a certain level of responsibility.

If you are a public figure, you have to be responsible for the type of example you set. Unfortunately, you must keep in mind the consequences of your behavior.

When I’m being harassed on a daily basis over basketball games, and I’m having obscenity’s and death wishes for me and my family sent my way because you’re expressing your “truth”, it’s hard for me to get on board with that.

My career is focused around encouraging and supporting others in living in their truth, finding their voice, and finding their peace. This is actually what I’m doing. My behavior aligns with someone who is speaking their truth.
— Nina Westbrook (@ninawestbrook) March 7, 2022

I don’t do the things that I do to receive attention, to get clicks, or for show. This is not a game to me. Basketball is a game. This is my life, my children’s lives, and my families life. Shaming anyone for any reason is never the answer.
— Nina Westbrook (@ninawestbrook) March 7, 2022

As far as my husband goes, he is his own person. I don’t need to defend him. I love and support him through all of the unwarranted hate and negativity that he receives. I speak up and share my experience and knowledge for those who do not have a voice.
— Nina Westbrook (@ninawestbrook) March 7, 2022

My hope is that the amazing and talented players that come after him don’t have to be subjected to this type of shaming, name-calling, and public scrutiny for playing the game that they love.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been arguably the NBA’s most disappointing team relative to expectations entering the season. Russell Westbrook has received the brunt of that criticism. Westbrook has had issues throughout the season in his efforts to establish chemistry with his teammates. Not helping matters is Anthony Davis not being able to stay healthy.

Any efforts that might have been pursued to trade Russell Westbrook didn’t materialize before last month’s trade deadline. There has even been talk about possibly benching him as well.

The team currently sits at 28-35, good for ninth place in the Western Conference.
