Russell Westbrook made history during Wizards’ latest game vs Pacers, and it only took 3 quarters. With a assist to Bradley Beal, Russell Westbrook tied Oscar Robertson with 181 triple doubles.
On the season Russell Westbrook is averaging 22 ppg, 11 apg, and 11 rpg. He’s doing this in a year where people started to say his athleticism is declining. If it really has, then it makes his triple double stat line even more impressive.
Take a look at the history making moment.
When Wizards season started off it looked they were a sure fire lottery team based on the amount of games they were losing. However, Beal and Westbrook never gave up and completely turned things around at the tail end of the season. They have won over 75% of their last 10 games to secure a spot in the play in tournament if the season ended today.
Russell Westbrook tying Oscar Robertson with 181 triple doubles just goes to show the maximum effort he’s bringing on a nightly basis. What makes it remarkable is that he doesn’t look selfish piling up these stats, he is doing it within the flow of the game.
