"They took great care of us," Westbrook told Bleacher Report's Taylor Rooks. "Took the time and energy to do their job at a high level. That was the right thing. I like to do the right thing."

The 31-year-old also left a thank you letter for the staff. This isn't out of character for Westbrook, who won the 2014-15 NBA Cares Community Assist Award for his work in the community.
