Russell Westbrook dropped 41 points and recorded another triple-double in Sunday’s win over the Pelicans, and he finished things off with a bang.
Clinging to a one-point lead, with just over two minutes remaining, the Thunder looked to their superstar to close out the game, and he did. Westbrook drove the lane, and using a screen from Steven Adams, he got near the hoop with ease.
Westbrook was challenged at the rim by DeMarcus Cousins, which would make many players change direction or dish to a teammate. Westbrook, however, was not intimidated, and he took flight to posterize Cousins with a huge slam.
