Russell Westbrook is a stand-up kind of guy. The Oklahoma City Thunder point guard won a car back in February as the MVP of the NBA’s All-Star Game but decided to pay it forward.
Westbrook donated the car to Kerstin Gonzales, 19, a single mother of two boys from Oklahoma City. When Westbrook gave her the keys to her brand-new Kia Sorrento, the tears started flowing.

In addition to the gift of the car, Westbrook will cover the first year’s insurance.
It’s always good to see athletes doing good things.
Russell wanted to honor "all the hard work she's done to keep her family together. I just want to be able to help others any way I can."
