We might be able to fill the whole list with Russell Westbrook's games, to be honest. Westbrook went nuclear on the Magic in the 4th quarter and OT as he rallied the Thunder back from a 21 Point deficit.
He scored 19 in the 4th quarter, drilling a 3 from 31 feet with 7 seconds left to tie the game. He then scored 7 and assisted 4 of OKC's 12 Points in OT as they came away with a 114-106 win over the Magic. It was the highest scoring output for any player while recording a triple-double, surpassing 53 by James Harden and Wilt Chamberlain.
While Russ had many more performances which could have made the list, we chose these 2 for the efficiency. He also recorded a 50 Point Triple-Double in the playoffs against Houston which was a remarkable achievement but shot 39% from the field so it won't make the list, but it deserves a shoutout if nothing else.
