Russell Westbrook is off crutches and posts a video to prove it

Oklahoma City guard Russell Westbrook continues to progress in his rehab following surgery to repair a torn meniscus he suffered in the first round of the NBA Playoffs against the Houston Rockets.

Westbrook, a social media wizard, took to Vine to update us on his progression.

Always an entertainer, it looks like Westbrook is done with his crutches and appears to be able to put enough weight on his knee to shoot a basketball, albeit standing still, next to a pool.

But progress is progress.
