Ngolo Kante
San Antonio Spurs v Oklahoma City Thunder - Game Three
Westbrook

Kante is the best defensive midfielder in the world and is known for his unlimited energy and engine. He was one of the main reasons why Leicester and Chelsea won the English premier league and France won the World Cup He is also known to be very humble and simple and is probably the most likeable footballer in the world right now.

Russel Westbrook is definitely not the most likeable basketballer in the world right now. While Westbrook has a completely different game but I believe he matches the energy and engine which Kante brings. While one can criticize Westbrook for a lot of things but he does play at a tempo and energy like no other basketballer.

Merely for the energy, passion and engine which both Kante and Westbrook bring to their respective games, I put them together.
