Nine-time NBA All-Star Russell Westbrook releases the latest “Mama’s Style” Air Jordans on his social media handle
NBA legend Russel Westbrook released some new air Jordans with an interesting story related to his mother. He posted tweets on his official Twitter handle.
Russell talked about how his mother got him into fashion and nobody can shop or find a deal like her. His newly released sneaker is inspired by her mother.
My mom is who first got me into fashion & nobody can shop & find a deal like her! This shoe is inspired by her & all the times we would go shopping at all the Swap Meets in la. She had a favorite line that I still use lol…”WE CANT BE THAT PRICE”.
He then posted a photo of his new sneakers or what we call Air Jordans and named it “Mama Style”
Anybody that know my mom then they know lol. “Mama’s Style” out now. #whynot
The former UCLA star just finished his first season with Los Angeles Lakers and they missed the playoffs and finished the year as the 11th seed in the Western Conference. He also played for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, and Washington Wizards.
Last season he averaged 18.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.1 assists in 78 games for the Lakers.
Russe Westbrook started his first season as Laker was far from a fairytale as the fans blamed Frank Vogel for his rough season furring his incendiary exit. They also openly heckled Russ with the “Westbrick” nickname. His first season in LA was a borderline disaster.
However, NBA Veteran Raja Bell had some other take on Westbrook’s case as he is against all the haters. On the recent episode of Real Ones on the Ringer, he provided his take.
“He didn’t fit, I’m not saying that he did. I’m not saying that he should be a Laker, I’m not saying that he’s the answer anywhere in particular. I’m simply saying, I just don’t under this level of hate. Do you know how many dudes out there are inefficient, like c’mon bro, they’re scattered across the landscape of the NBA, and don’t nobody get the hate that that cat gets.”
Bell even discussed how Westboork’s numbers are pretty much the same as his numbers in the past which from a shot-making perspective is not inaccurate.
His 44.4% field-goal percentage was slightly above his career average (43.8%), as was his three-point percentage of 29.8% (30.5% career average).
