The Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the New Orleans Pelicans at home, 101-92. The Thunder, powered once again by a Russell Westbrook triple (quadruple)-double of 28 points, 17 rebounds, 12 assists, and 10 turnovers, overcame the loss of Steven Adams early on as well as some all-around sloppy 2nd half play to win their 5th game in a row to move to 13-8 on the season.
The Pelicans were led by Anthony Davis, a man among boys, and who looks like he is approaching a level of resignation that he’s the 3rd best player on the planet and he may never see the playoffs again in New Orleans.
