Houston Rockets’ Patrick Beverley fakes out Russell Westbrook (Video)
By Phil Naegely
The Houston Rockets’ Patrick Beverley got the last laugh on Russell Westbrook as he faked out the NBA star.
Sunday NBA action was on fire as the Houston Rockets took on the Oklahoma City Thunder. Patrick Beverley faked out Russell Westbrook and got the go ahead three pointer late in the fourth quarter.
Sunday’s match up could end up being a great NBA Playoffs battle if both teams end up making it. Beverly isn’t as well known in NBA circles as Westbrook, but he got the better of the NBA star on Sunday.
If the Rockets end up winning the Sunday NBA game, Beverly’s three pointer could be the difference. This game showed some of the best offensive plays the NBA has to offer as both teams entered triple digits. It’s going to be a nail biter of a game as both teams trade baskets and the fourth quarter comes to a close.
Houston could use a win to help keep their playoffs hopes alive. It would require Beverley to hit a few more three pointers over Westbrook and other NBA stars this season.
