Russell Westbrook To Remain Out On Monday
58 seconds agoDenver Nuggets point guard Russell Westbrook (hamstring) will not take the court on Monday against the New Orleans Pelicans. After suffering a hamstring strain, Westbrook has to sit out a second straight game. His absence has allowed Christian Braun to re-enter the starting lineup, and he excelled in Saturday's win over the Charlotte Hornets, notching a 24-point, 11-rebound double-double while picking up a couple of steals. Braun has averaged 12.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 3.5 steals in two previous meetings with the Pelicans this season.
