Russell Westbrook, NBA star and human supernova, announced the birth of his first son in an adorable Instagram photo in May.

Now Westbrook just shared a photo of his boy at one-month old and, um, it sure looks like baby Noah is a chip off the old block. No, seriously: it's actually a little eerie just how much the 28-year-old Russell and 1-month-old Noah look alike.

The internet certainly noticed.

This one, however, is our favorite.

Yup. Better get that kid under contract, just to be safe.
