Finally, Oklahoma City Thunder fans can stop holding their breath. Russell Westbrook has signed a contract extension to remain in OKC.
The Thunder have been anxiously awaiting Westbrook’s decision ever since Kevin Durant decided to join the Golden State Warriors just a month ago. Westbrook signed a contract extension that could potentially retain the all-star point guard for three more seasons.
Westbrook recorded 18 triple-doubles in the 2015-16 season. Safe to say we’ll be seeing a whole lot more of that now that sidekick Kevin Durant has moved on. It’s Russell’s team now.
