Thomas Bryant #ThomasBryant
The two former Wizards teammates have looked solid together.
Your Los Angeles Lakers enjoyed perhaps their most complete game of the season last night in cruising to a wire-to-wire victory against the visiting San Antonio Spurs. The final margin was a convincing 123-92.
Russell Westbrook was asked about his relative ease in finding reserve center Thomas Bryant, who has immediately usurped Wenyen Gabriel and Damian Jones as Anthony Davis’s primary backup.
Here’s the relevant transcript:
“Just running. Any time I see my bigs and guys running I like to reward them. I can make the game easy for them. Especially guys like Thomas, Wenyen, whoever’s on the floor. I take pride in making guys better around me and I’m happy to be able to see him come back and catch his rhythm and play well”
Bryant scored 15 points on 5-for-5 shooting from the floor last night.
