Although Westbrook has taken over Mann’s starting spot, the two point guards are quickly on the same page.
The move could have been awkward, even messy, for the Clippers. But instead of egos clashing, Terance Mann and Russell Westbrook have forged a friendship that has one learning from another.
“It’s been amazing to be on a team with Russell Westbrook,” Mann said. “I’ve been a big fan of his since he’s been in the NBA. Last night, we were joking, he’s in Year 15 or something, and he’s 34. I was like, ‘Man, you look 23. You look younger than me.’ It’s crazy. So just being able to watch him lead and be great is cool.”
“I see so many great things he can do on the floor, pretty much everything and my job throughout the games is make sure that I stay on him, continue instilling conference in him, his abilities,” Westbrook said. “What he has already, I’m just here to help make sure that I can be a springboard to see him do some great things.”
Already, Mann said Westbrook has helped mentality, such as “not worrying about the last play and onto the next one. Kind of just that relentless mentality of the next play is your best play. And I appreciate that from him.”
