The Why Not Foundation was created by Russell Westbrook to inspire youth to reach for the stars in everything they do in life. According to the charity’s website,
“The mission of the Russell Westbrook Why Not? Foundation is to inspire the lives of children, empower them to ask ‘Why Not?’ and teach them to never give up.”
Russell has definitely exhibited the notion of endurance throughout his career. The basketball player’s focus has changed a bit since becoming a father several months back.
“I think the moment we knew we were having Noah was the moment it changed me,” Russell said during a recent ESPN interview. “For the good, obviously. You start to think about the things that best benefit him. Everything in life revolves around him.”
Even Russell’s practice sessions revolve around his son. “It’s a balance,” he revealed. “I like to get to the gym early. I get here first and work on my game. But Noah wakes up really early, and I might have been gone on the road for six or seven days, and he hasn’t seen me in a while. Then I’m staying at home. Which is OK, because that’s more important to me than anything. That’s just something I’ve had to get used to.”
