Also known as the 'Beastbrook', Russell is a powerhouse in himself, able to lit up the crowd and invigorate the spirit of his team at the same time.

6 feet and 3 inches may not look very impressive on papers, but the vertical jump and speed of Russell are always enough to put him in his own orbit. His extreme athleticism and multifarious finishes can easily daunt any defender. Even after being so much wavering and acrobatic he didn't get any severe injury.

The brightest streak of OKC is a quintessence of following natural instincts. The star has several titles which include, eight times NBA All-Star, most triple-double in a season, 2010 FIBA World Championships and many more.

This season Russell is scoring almost 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 10.4 assists per game. The dominance level of Russell in OKC can be reconciled from an almost unbreakable record of possessing the ball for more than one-third of the total team possession time.
