Player performances and review:

Russell Westbrook has been playing some great basketball this season and has been averaging a triple double. He is currently scoring more than 21 points on an average, pulling down over 10 rebounds and dishing out just under 11 assists a game as well.

His shooting has been abysmal from beyond the arc this season, at just 22%, yet he is attempting almost 5 3 pointers per game, which might be exasperating. All his other statistics make up for this torrid number though.

In the double overtime loss against the San Antonio Spurs, he scored 24 points, along with an insane 24 assists and 13 rebounds. He even had 2 steals to go with it, making it a great stat line even though the Thunder ended up losing the match. He is playing really well and should be a strong candidate for your DFS lineup.

Alternate pick: Tomas Satoransky (Washington Wizards)
