Wesley Matthews was really hoping to win his first championship with the Lakers this season. Unfortunately for him, the team fell short in its title defense, with any chance they had of repeating destroyed by injuries to their stars. In the end, it left him wistful for what could have been, and hoping the team gets a chance to see what they can do if they’re healthy.
“There is no question in my mind and in my heart that I want to run it back,” Matthews said at his exit interview on Friday.
The Lakers getting to do that isn’t a sure thing.
