Russell Westbrook: 10 Alternative Character Masks to Wear

Just how Ray Lewis' arm brace turned him into a supervillain reminiscent of those in comic books, the same thing is happening to Oklahoma City Thunder player, Russell Westbrook. He has become a masked hero who just recently had an amazing run of four triple-doubles, which is more than LeBron James has. Here are 10 characters that also donned masks and went on to do the remarkable.


10. Batman – The caped crusader is not the basketball player OKC needs, but the one it deserves. Na na na na na na na na BATMAN.


9. The Phantom of The Opera – The “Opera Ghost" who mysteriously haunts the court of the Chesapeake Energy Arena. He appears to make magnificent plays like running the length of the court to make a maddening dunk and then disappears.


8. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – How awesome would it be if we heard the Thunder bench shout “COWABUNGA, DUDE" after Westbrook nailed a 3-pointer? And if there was unlimited pizza provided at games because that's the only thing a TMNT can eat? Westbrook just needs to rename himself after a Renaissance artist.


7. Bane – “No one cared who I was … until I put the mask ..." Imagine Westbrook emerging from the darkness of the locker room and the opposing team questioning which will break first, their spirits or their bodies.

6. Hannibal Lecter – Russell Westbrook with the mask of the American Film Institute's #1 villain. Be careful, he bites.

5. The Mask – Remember this Jim Carrey movie from the '90s that was based off a comic book series? A man finds the Mask of Loki that turns him into The Mask, a magical trickster uninhibited by anything, including physical reality. Oh wait, Russell Westbrook is already uninhibited by physical reality. How else can you explain him returning from knee surgery after four days when he was originally supposed to be out four to six weeks?

4. MF DOOM – Doom is a hip hop artist known for his super villain stage persona. The real question would be if Westbrook as Doom could demolish the opposing team as well as the beats in the arena?

3. Maximus Decimus Meridius –The Gladiator himself. “What we do in life echoes in eternity." **cough** All-Star MVP **cough**


2. Optimus Prime – Let's be honest, if there really were transforming alien robots, Russell Westbrook would be the leader of said transforming alien robots.


1. Unicorn – If you put Russell Westbrook on the free throw line with this unicorn mask on, he'd still make 100% of his free throws. He's pretty much a mystical beast.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
