Westbrook’s triple-double and the Wizards bench mob are almost enough against the Hawks

With 28 points, 13 rebounds and 21 assists in the Wizards 125-124 loss to the Atlanta Hawks, Russell Westbrook is officially the king of the triple-double. With Bradley Beal sidelined because of a hamstring injury, the Wizards needed Westbrook to be great to have a chance, and they nearly pulled off what would have been a surprising victory.

Westbrook got little support from the starting lineup. Raul Neto, Rui Hachimura, Alex Len, and Garrison Mathews were all meh. Neto hit a few shots but didn’t contribute much else, and his overall offensive efficiency (107 offensive rating) was below average for the game.
