Russell Westbrook elevated his game in a 131-124 win over the Timberwolves, posting 45 points (16-27 FG, 13-13 FT), 10 assists, six rebounds, one steal, and three turnovers.
Fantasy Impact
Westbrook has been playing out of his mind since the turn of the new year, averaging nearly 32 PPG, 8.5 APG, and 8.1 RPG. His efficiency in 2020 has reached a new gear as well, hitting over 53% of his 24 shots per game. One of the biggest factors in this uptick is his shot selection; he has only attempted a single three-pointer in his last four games. Westbrook is a lock for every fantasy format you can think of when the Rockets take on the Nuggets this Sunday.
