0KC: Thunder will retire Westbrook's No. 0 this season
The Oklahoma City Thunder announced they will retire Russell Westbrook's No. 0 in the rafters on Feb. 7.
Westbrook was a first-round pick of the organization in 2008, just days before the team officially became the Thunder after relocating from Seattle.
Westbrook played the first 11 years of his 18-season career in OKC and paired with Kevin Durant to turn the young Thunder into one of the best teams in the league. However, after Durant's free agent departure following the 2015-16 season, Westbrook's stature in Oklahoma City grew.
