Elena Delle Donne: Russell Westbrook '1 of My Biggest Helps' During Back-Injury Rehab

Washington Mystics star Elena Delle Donne credited Los Angeles Lakers star Russell Westbrook with helping her through her recovery from multiple back surgeries.

Delle Donne told reporters Monday the now-former Washington Wizards guard "was one of my biggest helps through this."

"He would show up and it would just bring me out of a funk and be like, 'I got this, like I can keep doing this,' he believes in me," she said.
