Oklahoma City Thunder 28-21

Last week: 1-2
Last rank: 9th

The Oklahoma City Thunder have been in a bit of a downward spiral recently. Russell Westbrook’s esteemed greatness hasn’t been enough to get the Thunder a win in any of their last three games. They have an upcoming game against the Memphis Grizzlies that could have major playoff implications at the end of the year. Oklahoma City and Memphis have been neck and neck in the standings all season long. Heading into tomorrow’s game both teams have split their two matchups with each team holding serve on their home court.

Friday’s game is at the Chesapeake Arena and the Thunder need to use that to their advantage. The more important thing to discuss with the Thunder is RUSSELL WESTBROOK TRIPLE-DOUBLE WATCH. Currently, Westbrook is averaging 30.7 points, 10.4 rebounds and 10.3 assists per game. He is one of only three players in the NBA this season to lead his team in points, rebounds and assists (Giannis Antetokounmpo and LeBron James are the other two). We’re well over halfway through the year and Westbrook has shown no signs of slowing down.
