Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Russell Westbrook is one of the most aggressive dudes on the basketball court. He’s a menace to opposing teams whom he is constantly leaving clueless on how to contain the Thunder guard. But you would barely trace any speck of that aggression when watching this video of the reigning MVP singing along to nursery rhymes.

“The Ants Go Marching” and “Mary Had A Little Lamb” aren’t songs that will pump Westbrook up as he gets ready for a ball game, but his son, Noah, sure is having a kick out of his father showing his lighter, adorable side.

As of this writing, Russell Westbrook is averaging close to a triple-double of 19.3 points, 11.7 assists, and 9.3 rebounds. We don’t know how he is doing it, but it’s safe to say that he’s playing inspired because of his family.

The Thunder are off to a poor start with two losses out of their first four games mainly because they’re still trying to learn to play the same tune with the new pieces on the team. They have plenty of time, however, to improve so Westbrook could still afford to relax.
