Westbrook (rest) posted nine points (3-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and six assists in 24 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 118-114 preseason loss to the Suns.

Westbrook missed the team's previous game for rest purposes but returned to the rotation Sunday. Westbrook will likely be a key piece coming off the bench behind Jamal Murray this season -- his first in Denver.
