Russell Westbrook stole the spotlight with his cheekiness

Russ was not as influential as he usually is on the court on Wednesday night. However, he successfully grabbed everyone’s attention with his cheeky play. During his last night’s game, the former MVP tried to put the ball into the basketball when he was being guarded by the Kings’ youngster, Kevin Huerter. However, he instantly changed his mind and hit the ball into Huerter’s chest which further rebounded and got in Westbrook’s hands.

In other words, the nine-time All-Star tried to drain a 3-pointer. But quickly changed his mind as he had to get rid of the Kings youngster. With this move, the 34-year-old became the center of attraction in the hoops world on social media.
