NEW YORK (AP) Go shopping with powerhouse basketball player Russell Westbrook - whose colorful style has made headlines outside of sports - and you'll probably be surprised by his favorite section: the sale rack.

The Oklahoma City Thunder star player roams around Barneys New York Inc. on Madison Avenue, and when I suggest a fitted dark blue leather jacket, the point guard reacts: "No, `cause I know it costs like $3,000."

Westbrook says he's not going to buy the most expensive clothes just because he can afford it. "I may look at it, see how much it costs and then decide if I'm going to get it or not."
