The NBA's most fearsome player says he's a new dad in heart-melting Instagram
Hyper-intense NBA star Russell Westbrook can be borderline scary on the basketball court. His kamikaze playing style might even get chosen MVP this year -- we'll find out soon.
But a photo Westbrook shared Tuesday on social media already wins the award for Most Adorable Photo.
Yep -- he's a new dad. Meet baby Noah. Or at least baby Noah's feet.

Ten weeks ago, Westbrook announced his wife Nina Earl's pregnancy in another awww-worthy Instagram post.
Rumor has it baby Noah is in the nursery dunking other infants and already working on this first triple-double.
