Well, Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook must be feeling a lot better.

The All-Star guard, who missed all but two playoff games after injuring his knee, posted a video to his Vine account Saturday in which he tried to break a crutch, then threw it in a pool.

Westbrook, who is expected to be ready for the beginning of next season after tearing his meniscus, has been on crutches since mid-April. No word for sure, but the video certainly suggests Westbrook is now off crutches and beginning the next phase of his rehab.
