Westbrook puts up the numbers in crunch time
Russell Westbrook scored 27 points, grabbed 18 rebounds, and dished out 15 assists in the Thunder’s thrilling triple-overtime win over the 76ers on Friday night. Over the three OT periods, Westbrook had 14 points, eight rebounds, and two assists. And in the third OT period, Westbrook really stood out, with six points and seven rebounds. No player had that many points and rebounds in a single overtime period since Brian Grant of the Blazers did so (also six points, seven rebounds) on March 3, 1999, at Sacramento.
