Not necessarily known to be the friendliest to journalists, Russell Westbrook had a pretty funny conversation with one of them on Tuesday. Who Said He Can’t Be Nice?
New member of the Wizards, Russell Westbrook will make his big debut this Tuesday night, against the 76ers. A big opposition, but it is the possibility for him and Bradley Beal to test themselves. It promises a very interesting meeting, especially as Russ continues to find his bearings in the capital.
Easy ? No, not quite. For example, we learned that it was forbidden to dunk in training. An instruction given by Scott Brooks, who is not joking on the subject. In addition, Westbrook must learn to manage the media.
In the past, we know that the leader has experienced many clashes with certain journalists. He can be funny sometimes, like very unpleasant at times. Not easy to manage behavior, yet someone gave it a go with an unusual question in Westbrook. Fortunately for him, the person concerned remained very nice in his response.

A reporter asked Russell Westbrook if he could share something about his family. Russ gave the names of his wife and children. Then the reporter asked him how they experienced the move.
Russ: “That’s all I have for you champion. “
Details, but not too many: that’s all Russ. Obviously, the leader remains discreet about his private life and is free to do as he sees fit. We hope that the journalist has learned the lesson, it is better to stay within the framework of the basketball concerning Westbrook.
Sometimes even Russell Westbrook has cool moments with reporters. Be careful not to play too much with fire though.
