UCLA alumnus Westbrook is 'all-time favorite' in OKC per former NBA PG

Russell Westbrook, former UCLA men's basketball player and now retired NBA point guard, has been named the all-time favorite player in Oklahoma City, according to former NBA point guard Raymond Felton. Felton made this claim on his podcast "To The Baha" alongside fellow NBA veterans Theo Pinson, Charlie Villanueva, and Deron Williams.

Felton praised Westbrook's impact on the Oklahoma City Thunder, stating that the team was built by Russ, who cultivated a winning culture and remained loyal to the fans. Despite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander being named league MVP in back-to-back seasons, Felton remains adamant that Westbrook will always be the beloved and iconic Thunder player.
