SECOND ROUND OPPONENT LOS ANGELES LAKERS Playoff Series (2-1 Thunder) 2011-12 Season Series (2-1 Thunder) Thunder vs. Lakers: The Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Lakers are matching-up in postseason play for the first time since 2010, in which the Lakers defeated the Thunder 4-2 in the first round. After an opening round sweep over the Dallas Mavericks, the OKC franchise has advanced to the second round of postseason play in back-to-back seasons for the first time since the 1997 and 1998 playoffs. The OKC Franchise is 13-26 all-time in the playoffs versus the Los Angeles Lakers. In all, the two organizations have squared-off in eight postseason series (Lakers lead all time playoff series 6-2). Playoff Note: After starting the 2012 postseason with a perfect 6-0 record, the Thunder fell to the Los Angeles Lakers 96-99 last night at STAPLES Center. The Lakers and Thunder will take the court once again this evening, marking the first time a back-to-back has been played in the playoffs since the 2003 postseason {Dallas met Sacramento and Detroit faced-off against Philadelphia on consecutive nights during 2003 playoffs). Should the Thunder defeat Los Angeles tonight, Oklahoma City would travel home for game 5 on Monday with a 3-1 series lead. In NBA history, the team leading 3-1 in a best-of-seven series has gone onto win the series 96.2% of the time (200-8). 2011-12 Rewind: Oklahoma City entered the 2012 postseason having wrapped-up the second best regular season record in the Western Conference (47-19) and the highest year-end winning percentage by the franchise since the 1997-98 season (.744). The Thunder s.712 winning percentage this past season ranks fourth best all-time for the franchise. After finishing the 2008-09 season with a record of 23-59, the Oklahoma City Thunder has now captured playoff berths during each of the three subsequent seasons (the OKC franchise is making three straight trips to the playoffs for the first time since 1996-1998). Elias Sports Bureau Note: During the last 10 years, there have been six series played between one team coming off a sweep and the other off a seven-game series. Five of those six series were won by the team coming off the sweep, with the lone exception being the Orlando Magic's elimination of the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2009 Eastern Conference Finals.

THUNDER vs. LAKERS PLAYOFF BOX SCORES....

FIRST ROUND OPPONENT DALLAS MAVERICKS Playoff Series (4-0 Thunder) 2011-12 Season Series (3-1 Thunder) Thunder/Mavericks Playoff Note: In a rematch of last year s Western Conference Finals (in which Dallas defeated Oklahoma City 4-1) the No. 2 seed Oklahoma City Thunder and the No. 7 seed Dallas Mavericks met in postseason play for a second consecutive season. After recording a 4-0 sweep over the Mavericks, the OKC franchise is now 2-2 all-time in playoff series against Dallas (the OKC franchise last defeated DAL in postseason play during the 1987 playoffs). By going a perfect 4-0 against the Mavericks in the first round of the playoffs, the OKC franchise recorded just its second all-time sweep of a seven game playoff series. Interestingly enough, the club s only other postseason sweep occurred during the 1996 Western Conference Semi-Finals vs. Houston, in which the team defeated the defending NBA Champion, Rockets. After the 4-0 sweep, the Mavericks became just the second defending NBA Champ to get swept in the first round the season after winning the NBA title. Game-Winner for Durant: Kevin Durant hit the game-winning jump shot with 1.5 seconds left in regulation during the Thunder s Game 1 victory over the Mavs last Saturday night. It is his fourth game-winning field goal in the final five seconds in the last two seasons (playoffs included). That is most by any player in the NBA. All-Times Series Record: 67-65** Playoffs: 11-8 Current Streak: Won 2** Current Home Streak: Won 2** Current Road Streak: Won 1** Largest Winning Margin: 47 (117-70, 11/25/89 at Dallas)** Largest Losing Margin: 44 (80-124, 4/11/85 at Seattle)** **Includes regular season ONLY May 5, 2012 at American Airlines Center Oklahoma City 103 Dallas 97 After trailing by 13 points after three quarters of play, the Thunder outscored the Mavericks 35-16 in the fourth quarter to capture the franchises second ever postseason sweep of a seven game series.

On his own, Harden outscored the entire Mavericks bench (the Dallas reserves scored 23 points on 8-of-19 FGs) In 30 minutes of action off the bench, Derek Fisher scored 12 points after missing only one of his six field goal attempts (including 2-of-2 3-point shooting) After recording a total of 13 turnovers through three quarters of play, the Thunder failed to register a single turnover during the fourth quarter. May 3, 2012 at American Airlines Center Oklahoma City 95 Dallas 79 During the Thunder s wire-to-wire victory over the Mavericks, Oklahoma City led by as many as 26 points in the second half before taking a 3-0 series lead On the night, the Thunder limited Dallas to 34.2% shooting (26-76 FGs) which represents the lowest opponent postseason field goal percentage of the Oklahoma City era (dating back to the 2009-10 playoffs) The Thunder led by 50-41 at halftime, but the Mavericks quickly cut the OKC lead to five points after converting their first two baskets of the second half. From there, the Thunder outscored the Mavs 25-12 throughout the remainder of the third period (DAL shot 2-of-16 to close the third quarter) Kevin Durant registered the best shooting night of his postseason career after shooting 73.3% (11-15 FGs) from the floor en route to a game-high 31 points. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City limited Mavs forward Dirk Nowitzki to 17 points on 6- of-15 shooting (including just seven second half points on 2-of-7 shooting) The Thunder committed just eight turnovers on the night. During the 2011-12 season, the Thunder never committed fewer than 10 turnovers in any game. April 30, 2012 at Chesapeake Energy Arena Oklahoma City 102 Dallas 99 After trailing by as many as 16 points in the first half, the Mavericks had an opportunity to send the game to overtime on their final possession, but the Thunder claimed a 2-0 series lead after a pair of missed 3-point field goal in the finals seconds by Jason Terry The fourth quarter featured six lead changes and four ties (16 lead changes and 16 ties overall in the contest) Kendrick Perkins recorded his second highest scoring effort of the season after scoring 13 points on 4-of-5 shooting Meanwhile, Thunder guard Derek Fisher came off the bench to provide a lift with 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting The Thunder defeated the Mavs despite getting outscored in the paint by an 18-40 margin The Thunder shot 94.9% from the free throw line (37-39 FTs).

OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER REGULAR SEASON NOTES... Division Champs: Although the Thunder fell to the Denver Nuggets during the team s regular season finale, Oklahoma City enters the 2012 postseason with the second best record in the Western Conference (47-19). The club s.712 year-end winning percentage is the highest for the franchise since the 1997-98 season (.744) and the fourth highest for the franchise all-time. When the dust finally settled on the 2011-12 season, the Thunder claimed a second consecutive Northwest Division title after finishing 9.0 games above the second place, Denver Nuggets. After finishing the 2008-09 season with a record of 23-59, the Oklahoma City Thunder has now captured playoff berths during each of the three subsequent seasons (the OKC franchise is making three straight trips to the playoffs for the first time since 1996-1998). Bouncing Back: Dating back to the start of the 2010-11 season, Oklahoma City has demonstrated a high level of resiliency in those games played immediately after a loss. After the Thunder s bounce-back win over the Sacramento Kings on April 24 th, Oklahoma City finished this past season with a 15-3 mark in games played after a loss. Only the Chicago Bulls recorded a better record in those games played after a loss (15-1). This comes on the heels of the 2010-11 season in which Oklahoma City posted a record of 20-6 in games played immediately after a loss. The Thunder s.769 winning percentage in those games played after a defeat was trumped once again by only the Chicago Bulls (16-4 following a loss). Block Party: When the dust settled on the 2011-12 regular season, the Thunder not only led the NBA in blocked shots (8.17 bpg), but Oklahoma City recorded the highest block per game total in the NBA in nearly 20 years. The 1993-94 Denver Nuggets team (8.37 bpg) was the last group to average more blocks than this year s Thunder squad. Serge Ibaka led the NBA while setting an all-time franchise record with a 3.65 block per game average (most blocks per game since Theo Ratliff recorded 3.74 bpg during the 2000-01 season). To put a bit more perspective on Ibaka s accomplishment; with a total of 241 blocks this past season, Ibaka recorded only 19 fewer blocks than the entire New Jersey Nets team. During the Thunder s game versus the Nuggets on 2/19, Ibaka set a franchise record by blocking 11 shots en route to his first career triple-double. On the season Ibaka became the first player to register three 10-plus blocks games since Shawn Bradley during the 1996-97 season (five games with 10+ blocks). Point Made: With a 103.1 point per game scoring average this season, the Oklahoma City Thunder finished behind only the Denver Nuggets (104.1 ppg) and the San Antonio Spurs (103.6 ppg) in the quest to become the NBA s highest scoring team. During the 2011-12 season, the Thunder led the NBA in free throw shooting accuracy (80.6%) while ranking third in field goal shooting accuracy (47.1%). OKC finished the year a perfect 18-0 when shooting 50.0% or better from the field. Getting Defensive: As is oftentimes the case, team defense is critical to success and this past season the Thunder showed material improvement in a number of defensive categories. After allowing 101.7 points per game on 46.2% shooting through the first 66 games of the 2010-11 season (in which the team started 43-23), the Thunder responded by holding the opposition to 96.9 points on 42.7% opponent field goal percentage this past season. The Thunder concluded the 2011-12 season by going a perfect 16-0 when limiting the opponent to less than 90 points. Including the Thunder s win over the Sacramento Kings on April 13 th, Oklahoma City held 19 opponents to less than 40.0% shooting this past year, while posting a 15-4 record in those games. After season s end, Serge Ibaka finished second in the NBA s defensive Player of the Year balloting. Ibaka received 41 first place votes and finished just 17 points behind Tyson Chandler. Road Warriors: With the 2011-12 regular season now complete, Oklahoma City once again found success playing away from the Chesapeake Energy Arena. In 33 games road games this season, the Thunder registered a 21-12 mark {3 rd best road record in the NBA behind Chicago (24-9) and San Antonio (22-11)}. The Thunder was one of only THREE Western Conference teams (Denver & San Antonio) to boast a winning road record. During the 2010-11 season, the Thunder recorded a mark of 25-16 on the road. Only four other teams tallied more road victories than the Thunder (CHI, MIA, DAL and LAL). Making them Look Free: For a second season in a row, the Thunder finished the year as the top free throw shooting team in the NBA (OKC shot 80.6% from the free throw line). OKC finished the season leading the NBA in free throw makes per game (21.3) while ranking second in free throw attempts per game (26.4). In four instances this season the Thunder converted 30-plus free throws and on each occasion the Thunder won the contest. During the 2010-11 season, OKC shot a league-best 82.3% from the free throw line (5 th highest percentage in NBA history). On the year, OKC converted 30+ FTs on eighteen occasions (16-2 record) after doing so six times during all of the 2009-10 season (4-2 record). During the 2009-10 season Durant recorded 756 free throw makes, an all-time OKC Thunder franchise record and the 6 th most in NBA history for a single season. Durant s 756 free throws made were the most for a single-season since Michael Jordan recorded 833 free throw makes during the 1986-87 season. KD is the ONLY player in NBA history to convert 700+ free throws while shooting 90.0% or better. Dynamic Duo: With a combined total of 51.6 points per game, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook became the highest scoring duo in franchise history (surpassing their previous record of 48.2 ppg last season followed by Dale Ellis and Tom Chambers 48.2 point per game average during the 1986-87 season). Durant and Westbrook surpassed the tandem of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade (combined 49.2 ppg) to become the highest scoring pair of teammates in the NBA this season. During the Thunder s outing against the Denver Nuggets on 2/19, the Thunder prevailed after receiving a combined 91 points from Kevin Durant (51 points) and Russell Westbrook (40 points). The 91 combined points for the two players is an all-time franchise record. After Durant and Westbrook each scored 40+ points in the Thunder s recent outing vs. Minnesota (3/23) the duo becomes the first pair of teammates in NBA history to each score 40+ points on two separate occasions during a single season. On 14 occasions dating back to the start of last season Durant and Westbrook have each scored 30-plus points in the same game (11-3 record). Back-to-Back Scoring Champ: After averaging an even 28.0 points per game this past season, Kevin Durant becomes the seventh player in NBA history to capture three consecutive scoring crowns {Michael Jordan was the last player to win three straight scoring titles (1995-1998)}. By claiming back-to-back-to-back scoring titles, Durant has joined a hall-of-fame list of NBA players to record the feat (Michael Jordan, George Gervin, Bob McAdoo, Wilt Chamberlain, Neil Johnston and George Mikan). During the 2009-10 season, Durant became the youngest scoring champion in NBA history (21 years and 197 days).

Home Cooking: Earlier this season, the Thunder registered a 14-game home winning streak which represented the longest home win streak for the OKC franchise since the 1994-95 season (17 game home win streak from 11/11/94 1/24/95). Prior to the Thunder s home loss versus Cleveland on 3/9, more than two months had elapsed between Thunder home losses (1/3/12 vs. POR). The Thunder finished behind only Miami (28-5) and San Antonio (28-5) in the race for the NBA s best home record. Harden Heats Up: James Harden once again continued to impact games for the Thunder in a reserve capacity throughout the 2011-12 season. Harden came off the bench in 60 of his 62 appearances this past season for Oklahoma City and in all but four instances he proceeded to score in double figures. Harden was oftentimes the difference-maker for Oklahoma City. This was further validated by the fact that the Thunder posted a 14-1 record this season when Harden scored 20-plus points. Harden s 16.8 point per game average was tops in the NBA among reserves (min. 40 games). James Harden Comparison to recent 6 th Men of The Year Player (TEAM) Year PPG FG% James Harden (OKC) 2011-12 16.8 49.1% Lamar Odom (LAL) 2010-11 14.4 53.0% Jamal Crawford (ATL) 2009-10 18.0 44.9% Jason Terry (DAL) 2008-09 19.6 46.3% Manu Ginobili (SA) 2007-08 19.5 46.0% Leandro Barbosa (PHX) 2006-07 18.1 47.6% Tracking the Perk Effect: Since Kendrick Perkins made his Oklahoma City debut last in the middle of the 2010-11 season on 3/14/11 at Washington, the Thunder has posted a 60-23 record. With Perkins in the lineup for the final 17 games of the 2010-11 regular season, the Thunder held its opponents to an average of 97.9 points on 43.8% shooting. Prior to Perkins joining the team mid-season, the Thunder had been allowing 101.8 points on 46.3% shooting. Russell Rules: Russell Westbrook just concluded his fourth season in the NBA with Oklahoma City and he currently maintains the longest active games played streak in the NBA (appeared in 312 straight games). During Westbrook s first three full seasons in the NBA, he became one of only five players in NBA history to record 4,000 points, 1,500 assists and 1,000 rebounds through three NBA seasons (Chris Paul, LeBron James, Anfernee Hardaway and Oscar Robertson). By averaging better than 21+ points and 8+ assists last season, Westbrook became just the FIFTH player in the last 15 years to average 21+ points and 8+ assists {Gary Payton (4x), Stephon Marbury (4x), Chris Paul (2x) and LeBron James). Players to Avg. 19+ points, 6+ assists and 4+ rebounds through first 4 years of career (last 10 years) Player (TEAM) Points Assists Rebounds Russell Westbrook (OKC) 19.0 6.8 4.7 Chris Paul (NO) 19.4 9.9 4.8 LeBron James (CLE) 26.7 6.4 6.7 Dwyane Wade (MIA) 23.8 6.4 5.0 Steve Francis (HOU) 20.1 6.4 6.3 5,000 for Russell: Late in the second quarter of the Thunder s game vs. Utah on February 14 th, Russell Westbrook scored his 5,000 th point to become one of just four players in franchise history to record 5,000 points through 274 or fewer games {Spencer Hayward (190 games), Kevin Durant (205 games), Bob Rule (228 games) and Xavier McDaniel (244 games)}. After reaching the 5,000 point plateau, Westbrook joined Magic Johnson and Oscar Robertson as the only players in NBA history to record 5,000 points, 1,900 assists and 1,300 rebounds through 274 career games (Elias Sports Bureau). Over the Hill: After recording 40 points on April 18 th versus Phoenix, James Harden became the third Thunder player to score 40-plus points this past season; joining Kevin Durant (four 40-point games) and Russell Westbrook (two 40-point games) in accomplishing the feat. The OKC franchise last had three players score 40-plus points in the same year during the 1997-98 season (Tom Chambers, Dale Ellis & Xavier McDaniel). After scoring 40 points as a reserve, James Harden became the first bench player in the last two seasons to record a 40-point game, tallying the league s most points by a reserve since March 27, 2010, when Maverick guard Rodrique Beaubois scored 40 points against Golden State. Durant, Harden and Westbrook are the first trio to each record 40 points in a season since Stephen Curry, Monta Ellis and CJ Watson accomplished the feat as members of the Golden State Warriors during the 2009-10 season. February was Friendly: With a leap-day victory over the Philadelphia 76ers at the Wells Fargo Center on February 29 th, the Thunder capped-off the month of February with a record of 12-3. The 12 wins recorded in the Month of February was tops in the NBA. The OKC franchise had only won 12 games in the month of February on one prior occasion (12-3 record in February of 1972). Just Another Back-2-Back: With 18 sets of back-to-backs now in the books (in addition to the Thunder s back-to-back-to-back) for the 2011-12 season, Oklahoma City has been successful to this point when playing on consecutive nights. This past season, the Thunder registered sweeps in nine sets of back-to-back match-ups to go along with a sweep of the team s lone back-to-back-to-back. Oklahoma City posted a 15-4 mark on the first night and a 14-6 record on the second or third night of a back-to-back. During the 2010-11 season the Thunder played 17 sets of back-to-backs and the club posted a 13-4 record on the first night followed by a 10-7 mark on the second night (while capturing sweeps in seven sets of their back-to-backs). OKC is Fan Friendly: The Thunder opened the 2011-12 season right where they left off a year ago with another sellout. The Thunder then proceeded to sellout all 33 home games this season. This occurs on the heels of the 2010-11 season in which the Thunder sold out 14 consecutive games to close the regular season and 35 games overall. Those fans in attendance this year will once again enjoy the improvements made to the Chesapeake Energy Arena as part of a taxpayer funded initiative passed in March 2008. Thanks to the publically funded initiative, the team s arena boasts a state-of-the art scoreboard, new terrace suites, an updated main concourse with new concession stands and a courtside club. Boards are the Barometer: As one might expect, Oklahoma City has traditionally found their greatest success when outrebounding the opposition. On the season, Oklahoma City went 31-5 when outrebounding the opponent (12-1 when outrebounding the opponent by 10 or more). Conversely, OKC has failed to outrebounded their opponent in 14 of the team s 19 losses this season. During the 2010-11 season, OKC registered a 37-11 mark when outrebounding their opponent.

Double-Double Man: Including his career-long (tying) streak of five straight games with a double-double (1/27 at GS 2/4 at SA), Kevin Durant has recorded a double-double in 18 games this season. Last year, Durant recorded 14 double-doubles including a stretch of five consecutive double-doubles from 1/30/11 vs. Miami 2/8/11 vs. Memphis. During the 2010-11 season, Durant increased his rebounding average by a full 1.2 rebounds per game (averaged a team-high 8.0 rebounds). Facing the East: After starting the season 8-1 versus the East, the Thunder played their final game versus Eastern Conference opponents on April 9 th when traveling to Milwaukee to take-on the Bucks. After defeating the Bucks on the road by a 20-point margin of victory, the Thunder concluded the 2011-12 regular season with a 13-5 mark versus the East. During the 2010-11 season the Thunder was successful when matching-up against opponents from the East. Oklahoma City concluded the season with a record of 22-8 when facing Eastern Conference foes. The Thunder s.733 winning percentage vs. the Eastern Conference ranked tied with Dallas for second best (San Antonio; 23-7) among all Western Conference teams. 3-For-30: During the Thunder s come-from-behind 115-104 victory over the Phoenix Suns on March 7 th, Kevin Durant (30 points), James Harden (30 points) and Russell Westbrook (31 points) each recorded 30+ points in a game for the first time in franchise history since 2/26/1988 (Tom Chambers, Dale Ellis and Xavier McDaniel). Additionally, Thunder center Serge Ibaka set a career-high after pulling-down 20 rebounds. Only one other time in NBA history had three players recorded 30+ points while another player recorded 20+ rebounds. That game occurred on 11/18/1968 when Earl Monroe (30 points), Gus Johnson (30 points) and Mike Davis (40 points) each scored 30+ points for Baltimore in a game in which Wes Unseld registered 23 rebounds. Awfully Good in OT: Despite falling to the L.A. Lakers in double overtime on 4/22, the Thunder finished the season 3-1 in overtime affairs. During the 2010-11 season, the Thunder became just the FIFTH team in NBA history to win eight overtime games in a single season (8-2). OKC set an all-time franchise record by winning five straight overtime games to start the season and the club s eight OT wins are the most in the NBA since 2002, when the Detroit Pistons went 8-0 in their overtime contests. During the 2010-11 season, OKC captured the franchises first-ever triple-overtime victory (12/1/10) against New Jersey (the OKC franchise was previously 0-4 all-time in triple overtime games). One For the Record Books: The Thunder s 124-118 overtime win versus the Denver Nuggets on February 19 th was not your average Oklahoma City victory. It was the first game in NBA history in which a set of teammates recorded a 50-point effort (Kevin Durant; 51 points), a 40-point effort (Russell Westbrook, 40 points) and a triple-double (Serge Ibaka; 14 points, 15 rebounds and 11 blocks). Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook are the first set of teammates to score 50 and 40 points, respectively since Kiki Vandeweghe (51 points) and Alex English (47 points) accomplished the feat on 12/13/1983 vs. DET (3OT). The 91 combined points by Durant and Westbrook is a franchise record. To put a bit more perspective on such an accomplishment, through February 19 th, there had been 323 NBA games this season in which a team as a whole failed to score 91 points. Not to be outdone, Serge Ibaka became the first player in franchise history to record a triple-double which included blocked shots. Five-In-Seven to Start: After defeating the Phoenix Suns at the end of 2011 (12/31), Oklahoma City claimed their fifth victory of the season in the first seven days of the 2011-12 season. The Thunder became just the second team in NBA history to capture five wins in the first seven days of the season (Houston Rockets accomplished the feat to start the 1996-97 season). The 5-0 start for the Thunder this year was the best start for the OKC franchise since the 1998-99 season. 30 Never Looked so Good: Picking up right where he left off last season, Kevin Durant hit the 30-point scoring mark in each of the Thunder s first four games this season. Durant is one of only four players in the last 30 years to open the season with four straight 30-point scoring efforts (Most recent: Kobe Bryant in 2005-06). In the last four seasons, Durant has scored 30+ points in 122 games (most in the NBA). Most importantly for Oklahoma City, the Thunder has found a great deal of success on Durant s biggest nights. Dating back to the start of the 2010-11 season the Thunder has posted a 41-13 (.759) record when Durant hits the 30-point plateau. During the 2009-10 season, Durant set a franchise record by scoring 30+ points on 47 occasions. Western Conference Finals: Last season, the Oklahoma City Thunder appeared in the Western Conference Finals just two years after finishing the 2008-09 season with a record of 23-59 (started season 3-29). Since the NBA went to a conference format in 1970-71, only one other team has reached the conference finals within two years after winning 23 or fewer games {San Antonio; 1998-99 season (won 20 games in 1996-97)}. The Thunder concluded the 2009-10 season by compiling 50 wins after posting just 23 victories during the team s inaugural season in Oklahoma City. The 27 win improvement was tied for the EIGHTH largest increase in NBA history. Thunder All-Stars Shine Bright: During February s All-Star festivities, Kevin Durant claimed his very first All-Star MVP award after helping lead the West to a 152-149 victory in which he scored a game-high 36 points on 14-of-25 shooting. With an All-Star average of 28.3 points per game, Kevin Durant is the game s all-time leader in points per game (minimum three appearances). Durant was making his second All-Star start (Received 1,345,566 votes, second most in the Western Conference) and his third career All-Star appearance. In his second All-Star game, Russell Westbrook scored 21 points to go along with five rebounds and two steals. The Western conference team was guided by Thunder Head Coach, Scott Brooks. Brooks was named the coach of the Western Conference All-Stars after the Thunder secured the best record in the Western Conference for all games played through February 15 th. National Spotlight: Oklahoma City is appeared on ESPN, ABC or TNT 17 times throughout the course of the 2011-12 season. When the dust settled on the NBA s 2011-12 broadcasting schedule, the Thunder was set to make the 6 th most national TV dates this year. Team USA: On January 16 th Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were among the 20 finalists named for the 2012 U.S. Olympic men s basketball team. Durant was named World Championship MVP during the 2010 USA World Championships after helping lead team USA to a perfect 9-0 record and a gold medal in Istanbul, Turkey. His involvement in USA basketball began in 2006 when he was named a member of the U.S. team at the Nike Hoop Summit. Westbrook, was also a member of the 2010 USA World Championship team and his involvement with USA Basketball dates back to 2008 when he was named to the USA Basketball Select team. The official 12-man U.S. Olympic team roster will be announced later this year.
