Svyato is an NBA writer at Athlon Sports, covering the Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks, Sacramento Kings, Denver Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, and Oklahoma City Thunder. His love for basketball is only rivaled by his love of Funko Pops.

Russell Westbrook always puts on a show, but OKC and Thunder fans have never seen it from this vantage point. Bring on the Nuggets and the drama.

The veteran guard had a solid two-season career with the Clippers, but was jettisoned last offseason as part of a trade to the Utah Jazz that landed defensive specialist Kris Dunn. At 35 years old, Westbrook was waived by Utah and proceeded to join the Nuggets in free agency.
