Russell Westbrook displayed some incredible athleticism when he stood on his head, literally, after hitting a jump shot in the second quarter of Thursday night's Oklahoma City Thunder game against New Orleans.
Westbrook was fouled as he took the shot and his momentum carried him backwards as he fell, so he just followed through with the headstand.
Now that's something you don't normally see in the NBA.
Westbrook led OKC with 44 points and 9 assists, but it wasn't enough as the Pelicans beat the Thunder 123-119.
