In this story:


Draymond Green and Bradley Beal have both been NBA All-Stars during their careers. 

They recently came together to defend another former All-Star. On an episode of Green's podcast, they both said Westbrook was a great teammate despite he is perceived as the opposite. 

"What I've heard from everybody that's played with him, is he's one of the best teammates they've ever had," Green said. 

Westbrook was traded from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Utah Jazz earlier this week. He is expected to take a buyout from the Jazz, meaning he could be an option for the Miami Heat. 

While Westbrook is no longer the constant triple-double threat he once was, he could still help a contending team. 

"That shit pisses me off," Beal said. "I ain't going to lie, bro, it really frustrates me because especially being a guy that played with him. The disrespect, that shit gotta stop."
