MANILA, Philippines — Russell Westbrook was officially introduced as a Houston Rocket in a press conference on Friday (Saturday Manila time).

What better way to celebrate Westbrook's welcome than a reunion photo with former Oklahoma City Thunder teammate James Harden.

Posting on his personal Instagram, Harden shared a photo with his close friend and teammate.

Judging by Harden's face, it's pretty obvious he's stoked to be reunited with Westbrook.

Both players have won the MVP in recent years, and when asked about how they're going to work together, Westbrook said he has nothing to worry about.

"To be able to win, we gotta bear the sacrifice some parts of the game and we both understand that... we have one common goal and that's to win a championship," he said during his introductory press conference.

"I'm not worried about it and I know James is not worried about it... I don't have to touch the ball to impact the game," he added.

The duo have been in the NBA Finals once in 2012, when they were still both in OKC.

Brooklyn Nets' Kevin Durant was also part of the Oklahoma team that made it to the Finals.
