UCLA Bruins: 10 Things To Be Thankful For This Thanksgiving

8. Bruin Champions Kevin Love, David Berg, Russell Westbrook

One of UCLA’s mottos is “Champions Made Here”. That goes beyond the time in Westwood.  Several great student-athletes have gone on to be successful at the next level. In the last year alone, former UCLA basketball player Kevin Love won his first NBA title with LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

On the baseball side of things, former UCLA Baseball player David Berg helped the Chicago Cubs to their first World Series title in over 100 years. Champions made here indeed.

Additionally, now he might not be an NBA champion yet, but former UCLA Basketball player Russell Westbrook is hands-down one of the best in the association today. Not only is he nearly averaging a triple-double in the season but he’s determined to make the Oklahoma City Thunder a threat in the NBA with or without that little priss that went to Golden State.
