Westbrook's 2016-17 season — averaging a triple-double for an entire season — had not been accomplished since Oscar Robertson in 1961-62. He did it again in 2018-19 and 2020-21, making him the only player in NBA history to average a triple-double in three different seasons.
He was named after his father Russell Westbrook Sr. and took the number 0 because 'zero' people believed in him growing up — a number that became iconic in OKC.
Westbrook grew up in Hawthorne and Lawndale, California and lost his childhood best friend Nigel Mills in a shooting shortly before entering the NBA — a tragedy that profoundly shaped his intensity and his philanthropy.
His signature explosive first step was described by Karl Malone as 'the fastest human start I have ever seen on a basketball court' — a compliment from one of the game's greatest power forwards.
