Russell Westbrook is a 14-year NBA veteran and is currently playing for the Los Angeles Lakers. He signed with the franchise before the start of the season and joined LeBron James and Anthony Davis in LA. 

A move away from Washington Wizards made him the highest-paid laker. The team entered the season with the expectation to be one of the best in the league. However, it hasn’t worked out that way at all and the team is ninth in the Western Conference right now. It has been a disappointing season for Brodie as well by his standards.

Despite his struggles this season, Westbrook is one of the greatest players to play the game. Known for his competitiveness and intensity on the court, he brings a lot to the table. Due to his great performances and tremendous skills, he has the most triple-doubles in the league’s history.

The Seattle SuperSonics (now Oklahoma City Thunder) selected the player with the fourth overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft. His great performance earned him a spot on the NBA All-Rookie Team. As a result of his skill sets in this sport, he gained a lot of popularity when he started his career.

As per Celebrity’s net worth, Russell’s estimated net worth of $170 million. In Forbes’ annual list last year, Russell ranked 14th out of the top-earning athletes. Through his endorsements and on-court earnings, he makes $59 million a year. When compared to other athletes and musicians, Brodie is making a lot of money and investing in his business.
