“I’m able to tell him sh*t that no one else can relate to,” Patrick Beverley proclaims his special bond with BRODIE Russell Westbrook after joining the Lakers

Patrick Beverley, the point guard for the Los Angeles Lakers recently opened up about his special bond with Russell Westbrook, which has grown even stronger since joining the franchise. In a recent interview on “Cold As Balls” with Kevin Hart, Beverley spoke candidly about his relationship with Westbrook. He detailed how their bond is different from any other relationships he has with teammates.

Patrick Beverley and Russell Westbrook have been involved in one of the most intense rivalries seen in modern sports. For years, they have faced off against each other on the court and the intensity was palpable. However, despite their intense rivalry, the two have developed a special bond. Beverley spoke a little bit about this when he went on Kevin Hart’s show.

The two have become close companions since joining the Lakers this past season. Despite the fact that they were bitter rivals just a few years ago, they now share a special bond that few others can understand. As Patrick Beverley proclaimed in the interview about the bond between him and Westbrook, “I’m able to tell him sh*t that no one else can relate to.”

That quote speaks volumes about the relationship between the two players. It is clear that there is mutual respect between them, even though they have gone head-to-head in the past and the close relationship now has been built with that mutual respect as the foundation. Beverley went on Instagram and defended Russ when the rumors of him getting benched first came out.

As the trade deadline draws closer, the Lakers are sure to be in the mix looking to upgrade the team. It will be interesting to see if Westbrook and Pat Bev will be donning the purple and gold by the time the 2022–2023 season comes to a close. Will their special bond endure and bring success to the Lakers? Only time will tell.
