Oklahoma Hall of Fame: Michael Jordan's introduction speech of Russell Westbrook into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame

On Thursday, basketball Hall of Famer Michael Jordan presented Thunder guard Russell Westbrook into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame.

Here's Jordan's full speech:

“When they asked me to be a presenter, I didn't even pause because of the relationship and the respect that I have for Clay (Bennett) and obviously the respect that I have for Russell. I'm truly a fan of his. If you can ever say, being that we're so many years apart, that I can now watch him play, I see a lot of resemblance in his passion for the game of basketball in the way I play the game of basketball.
