Russell Westbrook scores 25 in loss

Russell Westbrook managed 25 points (8-22 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 7-9 FT), five assists and two rebounds over 35 minutes in the Rockets' 105-95 loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Westbrook finished second in scoring to James Harden (27) despite another poor-shooting effort, though he didn't contribute much else in the box score. With James Harden commanding an outrageous 39.3 percent usage rate, Russ has taken a backseat and seen his averages fall across the board. The triple-double season streak will almost certainly be snapped in his first year with Houston, though Westbrook's 21.8/7.9/6.9 line through the early goings of the season suggest he'll remain a top-tier option.
