Russell Westbrook's pre-game attire is the stuff of internet legend. While an entire subset of fashion-forward people no doubt appreciate his clothing on a different level of which could even conceive, a far larger group uses the Oklahoma City Thunder superstar's fondness for head-turning outfits for playful criticism and easy laughs.
How either side will react to Westbrook's choice of attire, and accouterment, before Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans, though, is anyone's guess.

Is the massive red heart under Westbrook's arm merely a statement marking his appreciation for Valentine's Day?
Or might he be using it instead of a bag, purse, clutch, and the like to hold his toiletries, extra clothing, snacks, and other assorted items?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Westbrook, by the way, is married to Nina Earl, who he met while the two played basketball at UCLA. The pair had their first child, Noah, in 2017, and welcomed twin girls to their family last November.
Needless to say, Westbrook seems to have a lot to be thankful for on Valentine's Day, and was happy to show it. Not that his performance has suffered as a result, though.
Westbrook had 22 points, six rebounds, and four assists in the first half against New Orleans, which led the Thunder 66-63 at halftime.
