Oklahoma City (AFP) - Russell Westbrook carried the Oklahoma City on his back again, finishing with 36 points and 11 rebounds as the Thunder toppled the Portland Trail Blazers 101-90.
Westbrook's Monday performance comes a day after he was slapped with his 16th technical foul of the season in a game in which he exploded for a career-high 54 points against the Indiana Pacers.
The NBA's disciplinary officials, however, rescinded the technical foul earlier Monday, enabling him to play against Portland.
