Russell Westbrook III is one of the fiercest competitors in the NBA.
The six-time All-Star is on the verge of becoming the first player to average a triple-double since Oscar Robertson did it way back in the 1961-62 season. As mind-boggling as what the UCLA product does every night is, it's the ferocity with which he does it, attacking the rim with reckless abandon and literally playing every second of every contest as if it's the last thing he'll ever do in life.
His fearlessness, focus and ferociousness often extend into his interview sessions (Who is Steph Curry to him?) and sometimes makes it hard to see he's also a fun-loving guy, having the time of his life playing the game he loves at the highest level.
Then, every now and then, he supplies us with a candid moment such as the one he provided Saturday night, when he was caught rocking out to Lil Uzi Vert's "Do What I Want" on the bench. It was a full-on interpretative dance as he recited the lyrics and acted them out.

The song is one of Westbrook's faves. He set a Jordan Brand commercial to it prior to the start of the season and posted a video of himself jamming to it on Snapchat.
