Thunder G Russell Westbrook Lip-Syncs To Ke$ha [VIDEO]

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook didn’t just mum the words of a Ke$ha song, the man went all in. 

I absolutely love this video.  No, I can’t say that I’m a huge Ke$ha fan, but I love the fact that Russell Westbrook went all in with his lip-syncing.  He didn’t sheepishly hum Ke$ha’s song “Die Young” under his breath, the man was singing loudly and proudly.  Westbrook even added hand gestures as he bobbed his head.  Good for you, Russ.

The lip-syncing might’ve energized Westbrook as he poured in 31 points in Oak City’s 117-114 win in overtime against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday.  Maybe Kevin Durant did some pregame lip-syncing of his own as he scored 52 points.  Durant was 21-for-21 from the foul line.

Oklahoma City will face the Lakers this Sunday at 3:30pm ET.  The game can be heard on 104.5 The Team, ESPN Radio following our coverage of the Miami Heat @ the Boston Celtics at 1:00pm ET.  Based on principle, Ke$ha’s video for “Die Young” is attached below.  I’m assuming Russell would want it this way.
