LOS ANGELES - Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star point guard Russell Westbrook broke his right hand Thursday, coach Scott Brooks said after the loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
Westbrook, hurt during the middle of the second quarter of the 93-90 loss, has a small fracture in his second metacarpal. No timetable on a return was available Thursday night.
The Thunder already are without fellow superstar Kevin Durant until likely December and guards Reggie Jackson, Anthony Morrow and Jeremy Lamb for now because of injuries. The loss of Westbrook leaves their backcourt very thin.
Sebastian Telfair, the former high school phenom who played in China last season, is the only healthy traditional guard on the Thunder's roster. He played 38 minutes Thursday, finishing with 11 points and seven assists.
