SALT LAKE CITY —
The mention of Russell Westbrook’s name during pregame introductions Friday evening was met by boos throughout a packed Delta Center.
Inside the empty arena that morning, however, the mention of the Utah Jazz prompted a smile by Westbrook.
“I’m grateful for them just because — for many reasons,” the Clippers’ starting point guard said.

Westbrook is smiling often these days. With the Clippers, the soon-to-be 35-year-old has found “a place where I’m comfortable, with people that I like and want to be around,” he said.
