Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook have not been friendly since Durant left the Oklahoma City Thunder for the Golden State Warriors over the offseason. This has been no secret. The two haven’t even been talking.
Well, they’re of course both on the Western Conference All-Star team, and before the game on Sunday night, Westbrook wouldn’t even warm up on the same side of the court as the rest of his teammates:

But then the game started, and Durant and Westbrook found themselves on the court at the same time. And they even connected for an awesome alley-oop!
While that was great, the better part came when they went back to the bench and their West teammates were celebrating the play:
This video of the celebration with audio is particularly awesome:
And they both smiled!
