The Better Halves Of The NBA's Biggest Stars

Russell Westbrook and Nina Earl

Russell Westbrook is a certified NBA legend, known for his electrifying play and unmatched athleticism. As a nine-time NBA All-Star, he made history by becoming one of only two players to average a triple-double for an entire season, a feat he achieved in 2017 alongside Oscar Robertson, who did it in 1962. Westbrook didn’t stop there—he shattered records by racking up an incredible 42 triple-doubles in a single season, solidifying his place among the game’s greats

Born and raised in California, Westbrook honed his skills at UCLA, where he also met his wife, Nina Earl. Nina, a talented basketball player herself, starred for the UCLA Bruins before launching a successful business—a boutique in Oklahoma specializing in gifts for mothers and babies. The couple married in 2015 and now share the joy of raising three beautiful children. With his relentless drive on the court and his heartwarming family life off it, Westbrook continues to inspire fans across the nation. What’s next for this basketball icon? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure: his legacy is already set in stone.
