Transcript: Russell Westbrook's Oklahoma Hall of Fame induction speech

After an introduction from Basketball Hall of Famer Michael Jordan, Russell Westbrook gave an induction speech Thursday at the Oklahoma Hall of Fame Banquet & Induction Ceremony thanking his family and the people of Oklahoma -- and challenging them to help him heal people divided by this month's presidential election.
