Patrick Beverley and Nuggets guard Russell Westbrook were teammates with the Los Angeles Lakers
After a complicated history that produced several contentious moments, Patrick Beverley and Russell Westbrook became teammates on the Los Angeles Lakers. It was initially unclear what this dynamic would look like, but according to Beverley, it was Westbrook who first made the decision to put their past aside.
"I do my little press interview, Russ right there," Beverley said. "He didn't have to be there. It's Russell Westbrook. MVP, Mr. Triple Double himself. He ain't gotta be there. Off that right there, 'Okay cool. Let me humble myself. What's up? Let's lock in, gang. What we gotta do?' ... It wasn't words, it was just actions for Russ."
