Bradley Beal clearly has a deep respect for his co-star. Russell Westbrook is a player who knows what it takes to win basketball games. The Wizards are on a four-game winning streak and look like they’re starting to become a more cohesive unit.
While Bradley Beal is the face of the Washington Wizards, Russell Westbrook is also an important part of the roster. Hopefully, the Washington Wizards will continue winning games under his leadership, and possibly make the playoffs.
