HYBRID

NBA ROLE: ELITE (ÜBER-ATHLETIC), ALL-AROUND PLAYMAKER

 

Russell Westbrook: top-flight lead guard, perennial All-Star & former league MVP; let’s start here: Westbrook is THE most athletic PG of all time – it’s evident w/ each blinding first step, (seemingly) impossible finish (in traffic) & mutilating throw down; legitimately explosive from everywhere on the court – rare superstar gene: particularly when Russ decides he wants to score*; exceptional rebounder & playmaker (specializes in collapsing defenses and finding open teammates); walking trip-dub – Westbrook has very few weaknesses; feasts below the 3-pt. line, loves pull-up Js after 1-2 bounces & attacking the rim if afforded a beat; still prone to turning the ball over and is vilified for poor shot selection but Russ has a genuine, alpha mentality; does not understand what it means to take a game off or play lax • insatiable hunger to win, wants to destroy you in the process**; landed w/ Nuggets (2023) – will Russ soon add NBA Champion to his illustrious resume?

 

*Russ has unlimited scoring options: drives, pull-ups, step backs, fadeaways, etc. 

**NBA’s all-time leader in triple-doubles!
