(Russell) Westbrook failed to notch a triple-double for the third consecutive game in the Thunder’s 109-89 loss Wednesday to the Utah Jazz, which qualifies as noteworthy due to his remarkable production so far this season.

“Honestly, man, people and this triple-double thing is kind of getting on my nerves,” said Westbrook, who was 7-of-25 from the floor and committed five turnovers. “People think if I don’t get it, it’s like a big thing. When I do get it, it’s a thing. If y’all just let me play. … If I get it, I get it. If I don’t, I don’t. It is what it is. I really don’t care. For the 100th time, I don’t care.”
