Russell Westbrook needs to be very effective for the Thunder to have any shot at winning the title and so far, he has been great. However, last night against the Clippers, he struggled to finish inside, but shot 3-for-4 from distance and finished with 13 points.

He finished the night shooting just 4-for-17 from the floor, at a field-goal percentage of 23.5. However, he racked up 12 assists and contributed in every other way he could. Westbrook also pulled down 9 boards.

On the defensive end, he accumulated as many as 6 steals and was very disruptive. Westbrook is on course to average a triple-double over the entire season for the third straight year as he is averaging 21.1 points, 10.4 rebounds and 10.0 assists per game this season.
