Russell Westbrook exits game with severe ankle injury UPDATED: x-rays negative

UPDATE 11:00 PM: X-rays on ankle are NEGATIVE

This is the post you never want to read as an OKC Thunder fan. Tonight during a very competitive OKC Thunder game at 4:25 of the third quarter as Russell Westbrook returned to the ground after a typically aggressive effort at the glass he landed on Anthony Davis‘ foot.

What followed was the sickening view of his ankle bending almost completely to the ground. And, depending on what replay you say it seemed like his left knee also buckled.

Westbrook was clearly in obvious pain and reckoning back to his response to banging the table following his first leg injury in the playoffs courtesy of his nemesis Patrick Beverley he smacked the floor.
