Who says that you can't trade pizza for the shoe of an NBA superstar? In the world of Oklahoma City Thunder star Russell Westbrook, you absolutely can.
Check out the clip below featuring Westbrook, apparently haggling for a slice of pizza owned by a young Thunder fan.

The video didn't show the whole exchange. But to set things straight, the trade pushed thru. The kid got Westbrook's shoe:
Before the game Russell Westbrook offered up a trade with this young OKC fan: His piece of pizza for one of Westbrook's shoes. Westbrook handed over the shoe, but ended up passing on the pizza. Seems like a bad trade to me. pic.twitter.com/EVHKK1iejK

As for a photo of Westbrook munching on the pizza? Perhaps that can be best left to one's imagination. Besides, this is not the first time that the Thunder star craved for food while chilling on the bench.




While still out on injury a few weeks ago, Westbrook was caught nibbling on food during their game against the Golden State Warriors. Check out the clip below as Westbrook was sneakily eating a snack out of his pocket:

While there is no known rule if the players are allowed to eat while on the bench, Russell Westbrook was simply being courteous. He knows that cameras are everywhere and it would be downright unprofessional for him to chomp down some snacks.
Be as it may, he certainly has some serious cravings. So the next time that you want some superstar merchandise, bring a pizza and walk right behind the Thunder bench.
