LeBron James posts message from Russell Westbrook on Instagram

Nine-time NBA All-Star Russell Westbrook spent the first 11 seasons of his career with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Traded to the Houston Rockets in 2019, Westbrook spent one season there before being traded to the Washington Wizards.

Averaging a triple-double in Washington for the fourth time in his career, an NBA record, Westbrook was then traded to the Los Angeles Lakers to form a Big Three alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Even though it didn’t work out between Westbrook and the Lakers, the 2017 MVP still averaged 17.4 points, 7.2 assists and 6.9 rebounds in 130 games for his hometown team.

Westbrook and James were both in attendance at Sunday’s LA Rams game and were featured back-to-back on the scoreboard.

Reposting a video of the Rams on Instagram, James wrote: “Great game and great win guys!! S/O the Brodie!”

The Westbrook-James duo played 97 games together, posting a 46-51 record. Westbrook was traded to the Utah Jazz in 2023, where he agreed to a contract buyout before joining the LA Clippers.

Now with the Denver Nuggets, Westbrook looks to bring a new dynamic to the 2023 NBA champions alongside Nikola Jokic and his supporting cast.

Westbrook, who is entering his 17th NBA season, is the all-time leading triple-double with 199 in his career. Still in search of an NBA title, Westbrook has the opportunity to compete for a title in Denver.
