Russell Westbrook III flirted with a triple-double for the Kings Saturday night, dishing out 11 assists, grabbing six rebounds, and scoring 21 points (9-16 FG, 2-6 3PT, 1-2 FT) while also blocking one shot and recording one steal in a 128-123 win over the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact:
Westbrook III continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with four or more assists, six or more rebounds, and seven or more points in each of his last five games. The veteran guard continues to offer head coach Doug Christie a difference-making option on both ends of the floor as part of a versatile Sacramento lineup, averaging 14.1 points, 6.5 assists, and 6.9 rebounds per game to go along with a usage rate of 23.2% so far this season.
