Russell Westbrook's foul shooting is alarming

Russell Westbrook’s foul shooting has reached the alarming stage.

Westbrook made just four of eight foul shots Monday night in the Thunder’s 122-113 rout of the Jazz (OKC led 106-77 before losing interest). Westbrook’s makes rattled in. His misses induced winces, on how badly off they were.

The numbers are alarming for a guy who once routinely swished his foul shots. Westbrook is shooting 61.8 percent from the line. You read that right; 61.8 percent.

The NBA has 145 players who have taken at least 50 foul shots this season. Westbrook ranks 134th on that list.
