Russell Westbrook's 27 points propels Rockets to victory

Russell Westbrook provided 27 points (11-17 FG, 5-6 FT), seven assists, six rebounds and four steals across 37 minutes during the Rockets' 117-111 victory over the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact:

After being held under 50 percent from the field during the Rockets three-game losing streak, Westbrook was able to bounce back on Tuesday, knocking down 64 percent of his shots. He also made his presence felt on defense, chipping in four steals on the night. Despite the impressive play, Westbrook has committed 5.5 turnovers per game thus far in March and will need to do a better job at taking care of the ball going forward. The All-Star point guard will look to keep up his stellar play on Thursday as the Rockets travel to Los Angeles to square off against the Lakers in a prime time matchup.
