Russell Westbrook Records Triple-Double Against Houston
6 years agoAnother day, another triple-double for Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook. The former MVP has taken a bit of a backseat as a scoring option with Paul George taking a leap this season, but Westbrook remains a strong fantasy option because of nights like Saturday's win over the Rockets. In that game, Westbrook finished with 21 points on 8-for-21 shooting while adding 12 rebounds and 11 assists. It was the ninth consecutive triple-double for Westbrook, who has thrived in his role as the Thunder's secondary scorer. Consider him a top fantasy option for Monday's meeting with Portland; Westbrook has averaged 30 points against them this season and recorded a triple-double in the last meeting.
