Russell Westbrook Misses Sixth Triple-Double By One Assist
3 years agoLos Angeles Lakers point guard Russell Westbrook flirted with a triple-double in Wednesday's dramatic win over Dallas, completing his night at the office with a 23-10-9 line. He had four turnovers in 42 minutes and shot 8-for-18 from the field with a 1-for-4 effort from behind the arc. Westbrook has struggled to make an impact in recent games, but this performance should give him plenty of momentum. Next up, he faces a battle against his old enemy Patrick Beverley and the Timberwolves. Minnesota hasn't been too kind to opposing point guards this season, but Russ had a decent showing against them in this season's first head-to-head meeting, scoring 20 points on 63 percent shooting and adding five rebounds and three assists.
