Montrezl Harrell has always been a vocal figure, whether it be on the playing court or on social media. The Los Angeles Lakers big man isn't afraid to express himself, even when it comes to his personal struggles.

Harrell voiced out some of his emotions of late, revealing he isn't expressive just to get kind words or well wishes. But rather the Lakers star just wants to vent them out instead of keeping them to himself.

It's not exactly clear what Montrezl Harrell is referring to for this specific instance. Though the Lakers star is admittedly still reeling from the loss of his grandmother from last year, with whom he clearly had a close relationship with. It's always tough losing someone that dear to you.

His tweet even caught the attention of Lakers owner Jeanie Buss, who gave him a heartfelt message as he deals with his own issues.

Montrezl Harrell played an integral role for the Lakers during the 2020-21 regular season, averaging 13.5 points and 6.2 rebounds per contest. However, his role was severely diminished come playoff time despite reportedly being healthy. Harrell played in just four of their six contests against the Phoenix Suns, failing to log even just 10 minutes on average.

As the Lakers finally get a well-rested offseason to prepare for next season, hopefully Montrezl Harrell gets to enjoy his time to himself and also get better acclimated for another Purple & Gold title run.
