Russell Westbrook gets his 40th Triple-Double of The Season

Mr.Triple-Double is Ready to Set The Record!

Russell Westbrook completed his 40th triple-double of the season on Sunday in the Thunder's 113-101 loss to the Charlotte Hornets. He also passed the 15,000-point scoring mark.

He finished the afternoon with 40 points, 13 rebounds, and 10 assists as the Thunder are now 31-9 in games in which Westbrook tallies a triple-double. Westbrook’s next triple-double will tie him with Oscar Robertson for most triple-doubles in a season. If he gets two more in the remaining six games, he’ll have the record himself.

NBA.com noted what Westbrook needs to do to ensure he keeps the mark through the end of the regular season: Russell Westbrook needs 37 PTS, 11 REB & 29 AST over the next 6 games to average 30/10/10 on the season.
