Russell Westbrook Debuts New 'UCLA' Sneakers

Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook paid tribute to the UCLA Bruins with his Jordan Brand sneakers.

As if Tinsel Town needed any more star power, the Los Angeles Clippers just got another infusion after a blockbuster trade landed them James Harden. Not only do the Clippers now have four All-Stars with signature sneaker lines to their name, but all of them hail from Southern California.

While all four pillars of the super team left an indelible mark on the region, no player is as big in Los Angeles as Russell Westbrook. The Long Beach native became an important part of the UCLA Bruins athletic department's history when he made a record-setting donation in 2015.

Throughout his career, Westbrook has shown love to the Bruins at every possible opportunity. One of those ways has been with his signature Jordan Brand sneakers. Below is what fans need to know about the latest blue and gold colorway of Westbrook's kicks.

Earlier this week, Westbrook debuted an unreleased colorway of the Jordan One Take 4. Westbrook has the "Why Not" line as well as the more affordable "One Take" line for more frugal ballers.

The gold and blue 'UCLA Bruins' colorway is a rare player-exclusive colorway that is reserved for Westbrook and current Bruins athletes. The silver lining is that fans can choose between two colorways of the model for $100 on the Nike website.

After bouncing around the NBA for a few years, Westbrook has finally found a home, and it should come as no surprise that it is in Los Angeles. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for all your sneaker news.
