NBA MVP Rankings: Stephen Curry…And Then Everyone Else
4. Russell Westbrook, Oklahoma City Thunder
Stats: 30.3 points, 9.3 assists, 7.5 rebounds, 34.3 PER
I’m not even sure if Russell Westbrook is human. If in 15 years we find out that he was just a experimental cyborg from Mars, I don’t think anyone should be surprised. He’s faster than the fastest, more explosive than the explosive and more durable than anyone we’ve ever seen in the NBA.
Through four games this season, Westbrook is on pace to have his best overall shooting totals of his career. He’s shooting 52 percent from the field and 38 percent from three-point range. On top of all the highlights that he’s already gifted us thus far this season.
Westbrook and Durant go hand in hand and the only thing standing in the way of one of them being real NBA MVP contenders is that they’ll probably steal votes from each other.
