Westbrook gets extension

IN BRIEF

OKLAHOMA CITY — A person with the knowledge of the agreement says star point guard Russell Westbrook has signed a contract extension to remain in Oklahoma City. The deal is believed to be for five years and worth $205 million. Thunder fans feared the reigning MVP might leave, as Kevin Durant did during the summer of 2016 when he chose to join the Golden State Warriors. Westbrook signed the extension on Durant’s 29th birthday.
