Russell Westbrook leads Thunder to win over Spurs
by David Lu | Clippers Correspondent | Thu, Dec 25th 5:50pm EST
With Kevin Durant still sidelined by his ankle sprain, Westbrook added to his MVP resume against the Spurs on Christmas Day. Westbrook finished with 34 points on 14 of 28 shooting, with 11 assists, five rebounds, five steals, and four turnovers in 35 minutes.
Fantasy Impact:
Westbrook reportedly is trying to take less three's, and attempted only one against the Spurs. He's been an awful 28% from three-point range on the season, but an impressive 53% on shots between 16-feet and the three-point line. The change obviously paid big dividends against the Spurs. With Durant out again, Westbrook owners are finally seeing the returns they expected for the first month of the season.
