Video has emerged of Russell Westbrook’s “Why Not?” comedy show for charity in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Thursday night.
Of course, a Kevin Durant joke was told.
“Kevin Durant came by — this is how long ago this was, many years ago — so KD came by. So now we all talking. So it was me, Russ and KD. And Russ was like, ‘When’s your next show?’ And I said, ‘I’m gonna be in the Bay Area soon.’ And KD said, ‘Me too!’
“We didn’t know what he meant at the time,” comedian Lance Woods said.
So, there was a Kevin Durant joke at Russell Westbrook's comedy show in Tulsa last night, and @russwest44 seemed to approve. Comedian Lance Woods with the @KDTrey5 punchline. You can see Russ laughing at the end of the video. The #NBA is fun. #Thunder #Rockets #Nets pic.twitter.com/qjBFERzY9u

Westbrook, sitting in the front row, clearly enjoyed that one.
The star point guard had quite a night that Thursday evening. That was also the night Westbrook learned he had been traded to the Houston Rockets for Chris Paul.
