Russell Westbrook Reclaims His Big City Pride in Stunning Revival Overcoming Odds for Fans!
NBA legend believes Russell Westbrook is greatest player in OKC history.
Walking the streets of downtown OKC in sizzling weather, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander cemented his spot as the greatest player in Oklahoma City Thunder history — or so most would think so. At least one NBA legend thinks otherwise still. Dwyane Wade recently vouched for Russell Westbrook as the greatest player in Thunder history.
On a clip that went viral on social media, the NBA Hall-of-Famer argues that his former foe is still the best guy — but extremely rich — franchise history. "I still think that Russell Westbrook is the greatest player in Oklahoma City history right now. Doesn't mean he's going to end up that.
To me, I still believe that," Wade said. "You can't tell me that a player can come through Miami right now, win a regular-season MVP and win a Finals MVP and he just becomes the greatest player in Miami history. " Eh, I don't know.
As beloved as Westbrook is, Gilgeous-Alexander's resume has already surpassed his — both as an individual and team accomplishments. The latter will soon have more MVP awards on top of being the first guy to bring a Larry O'Brien trophy to OKC. At this point, we're seeing Gilgeous-Alexander have one of the greatest careers ever.
