While Westbrook has never won a championship, he did receive the NBA Most Valuable Player award in 2017. He was also the highest scorer in the entire league in 2015 and 2016.
Russell had signed a 5-year deal worth $207 million with the Oklahoma City Thunder, but was traded to the Houston Rockets in 2019.
