Russell Westbrook and the Houston Rockets are in Oklahoma City Thursday night for his first game back in his former home. That meant a tribute video and the Thunder did not disappoint. The team put together an amazing tribute that honored the hard work and great memories provided by Westbrook from 2008-2019.

The crowd was going wild as the video shared Westbrook's contributions both on and off the court during his time in OKC. Kevin Durant even made a cameo as fans got to remember the best days of the Thunder. The actual pregame introduction did not disappoint either.

Westbrook remained loyal after the departure of Durant and always gave it his all with the Thunder. He will remain a legend there forever and deserves all the love he is getting from Thunder fans.
