Beijing time on December 4, the Wizards officially announced that Russell Westbrook will wear the No. 4 jersey in the new season.
Westbrook always wore the No. 0 jersey no matter in the Thunder or the Rockets. The Wizards' No. 0 jersey was worn by "General" Gilbert Arenas before, but he did not retired the No. 0 jersey. In other words, Westbrook wants to wear No. 0 jersey, but Westbrook chose No. 4.
Westbrook once said in an interview that his favorite number is 4, and he also wore the number 4 jersey before high school. After Westbrook was selected by the Thunder in 2008, the Thunder's Nick Collison was wearing the No. 4 jersey, so Westbrook chose the No. 0 jersey.
Today's Westbrook wears his favorite No. 4 jersey. We wish Westbrook can play happily in the Wizards and hope Westbrook can lead the team to good results.
