Westbrook s fingers are wrapped in bandages! May encounter arthritis lead to poor coordination
9:23pm, 19 May 2025【Basketball】
On May 18, the NBA playoffs continued. In the current set of series, the Nuggets and the Thunder tied 3-3 in the semi-finals. US media posted photos of Nuggets star Westbrook wrapped his fingers in bandages, speculating that he had arthritis, which made him look weird in coordination.

US media JDJackson updated the update. They posted a picture of Westbrook tied his ring finger and little finger together, discussing it with the fans, and wrote: "I speculate that Westbrook's finger arthritis is because his hand coordination looks strange and has poor coordination. Look at how he looked in his early career, the difference is quite large. Time will prove whether this is true or false. But I objectively say that he played with a bandage in his fingers, which affected his shooting and made him unable to maintain stable performance. It will definitely be uncomfortable to play like this, but you still have to admire his tenacity."

It should be noted that since entering the playoffs, Westbrook's performance has experienced great ups and downs. He performed well in the first round against the Clippers, with a three-point shooting percentage of 41.9%; however, Westbrook's three-point shooting percentage has dropped significantly so far, and the six games have been: 1 of 5, 14 of 4, 19 of 1, 23 of 0, 0 of 2, 5 of 27 of 2, and the three-point shooting percentage is only 18.5%.

For this reason, Westbrook's performance in the second round of the series has also encountered a lot of controversy and criticism, especially in the past four games, Westbrook's scores were all single digits, and he has scored in double digits in five consecutive games. If Westbrook, as US media JDJackson said, was due to arthritis, then Westbrook's decline could be explained.

Even so, Westbrook's total score was 146 points in this year's playoffs, ranking first among all substitutes. According to the schedule, the Nuggets will challenge the Thunder away tomorrow. This is a tiebreak battle between the two teams. What kind of performance can Westbrook perform? Let's wait and see!
