When most men see actress Megan Fox in person, their first reaction is to drool and then likely clam up as if they’ve never spoken the English language. But you apparently don’t need to worry about doing so if you’re Oklahoma City Thunder star Russell Westbrook as it’s Fox who is enamored with the point guard.

More from NBA

Fox and Westbrook were presenters for the best female athlete award (won by Gabby Douglas) during the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Sports Awards recently and the Transformers star admitted to losing her cool when she was around the All-Pro.

"“I never got star struck but I got to present with Russell Westbrook and he’s so gorgeous in person I just giggled like an idiot the entire time. Also congratulations Gabrielle Douglas on your award”."

I’m sure Fox’s husband, former 90210 actor Brian Austin Green was thrilled with her admission.

Of course, Megan Fox is more than open about her desires as she’s stated her previous lusting over names like Olivia Wilde and Jenna Jameson, so I guess Westbrook should take comfort in his inclusion in her celebrity hot chart.

I personally wasn’t aware that Fox was such a big sports fan, let alone a Russell Westbrook fan though given his time at UCLA it’s possible the two had crossed paths or Fox was familiar with his name/game given their Southern California ties.

Whatever the case, it seems as if the Oklahoma City Thunder just nabbed themselves one of the NBA’s hottest fans.

Sorry Rihanna and whatever team she decides to root for today.
