With the Oklahoma City Thunder returning to the darkened days of playing without Kevin Durant as he rests a strained hamstring for a week or so, they had the good scheduling fortune to take on the winless Philadelphia 76ers in their first game without their star forward. Westbrook, who in 35 minutes put together another triple-double, which included a career-high 17 rebounds to go along with 21 points and 11 assists.

“He’s a very, very rare guy,” OKC coach Billy Donovan said, “because in my opinion, if he never took a shot, he could still dominate a game. He can rebound, he can assist it, he can defend, he can do anything.”
