NBA Today: 3 NBA stars that could average a triple-double for the 2019-20 season

#1 Russell Westbrook

Russell Westbrook has averaged a triple-double for three consecutive seasons

Russell Westbrook averaged a triple-double during his final three seasons with the Oklahoma City Thunder, a feat that is unlikely to be ever replicated. Nevertheless, following his summer trade to the Houston Rockets, few backed the point guard to make it four straight seasons due to the presence of James Harden.

However, despite seeing less of the ball, Westbrook has started the season in excellent form and is averaging a triple-double through four games. His effort on the boards has been noteworthy - and the 30-year-old is currently averaging a career-high 12.0 rebounds per game. His playmaking skills also continue to improve, and he should be able to find open shooters to ensure 10 assists per night.

Ultimately, no player in the NBA is in a better position to average a triple-double this season, and Westbrook could once again make history by extending his streak to four-seasons.
