Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Sniffs triple-double
Westbrook closed with 18 points (8-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, 10 assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 130-129 win over the Kings.
Westbrook finished just one rebound away from recording a triple-double, and the veteran floor general reminded everyone around the league what he can do on games when things are going the right way for him. Westbrook is averaging 14.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 8.7 assists and 2.7 steals per game as a starter, but his role has been inconsistent all season long. He's likely to head back to the bench if Christian Braun (back) is able to start Thursday against the Trail Blazers.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Starting sans Braun
Westbrook will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Kings.
With Christian Braun (back) sidelined, Westbrook will pick up his sixth start of the season Monday. Over five starts, the veteran guard has averaged 14.2 points, 8.4 assists, 5.2 rebounds and 2.6 steals while shooting 52.1 percent from the field across 32.0 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Back to bench Friday
Westbrook is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Clippers.
Westbrook will return to the bench Friday since Jamal Murray will make his return from a two-game absence due to hamstring inflammation. Westbrook has been serviceable off the bench for Denver, averaging 10.5 points, 5.8 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game when deployed in a second-unit role.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Starting Saturday vs. Washington
Westbrook is in the Nuggets' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
Westbrook will make his fourth start of the 2024-25 regular season Saturday due to Jamal Murray (hamstring) being ruled out. Across his three starts, Westbrook has averaged 18.3 points, 6.3 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 2.3 steals over 32.3 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Narrowly misses triple-double
Westbrook amassed seven points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-4 FT), 10 rebounds, 12 assists, one block and four steals in 32 minutes during Saturday's 122-113 loss to Washington.
Making a spot start in the absence of Jamal Murray (hamstring) on Saturday, Westbrook played a passive role and facilitated Denver's offense with a game-high 12 assists on a night that Nikola Jokic scored a career-high 56 points. Westbrook has now made four appearances as a starter for the Nuggets this season, averaging a solid 15.5 points, 7.8 assists, 6.3 rebounds, 2.8 steals and 1.3 three-pointers in 32.4 minutes per game as a member of the first unit. The 36-year-old former All-Star may hurt fantasy managers in nine-category formats with his subpar free-throw percentage and high rate of turnovers, but he'd be a strong streaming option in points leagues if Murray ends up missing Sunday's clash with a Hawks team that ranks 28th in the NBA in points allowed per game (119.0).

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Leads off bench in defeat
Westbrook finished with 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Thursday's 126-114 loss to Cleveland.
Westbrook provided a nice spark off Denver's bench in Thursday's contest, leading the Nuggets' second unit in scoring, assists and blocks while finishing as one of six players with a double-digit point total. Westbrook has reached double figures in scoring in 10 outings this season, eight of which have come off the bench.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Turns back clock Monday
Westbrook recorded 27 points (9-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 26 minutes during Monday's 145-118 loss to the Knicks.
Westbrook was impressive Monday and delivered an efficient scoring performance, which resulted in his fourth game with at least 20 points in the current campaign. Westbrook's upside isn't as high as during his prime years, but the veteran continues to carry potential value as a streaming option due to the solid numbers he can deliver on a bench role. Westbrook is averaging 13.2 points, 6.8 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game since the beginning of November.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Posts triple-double No. 200 in win
Westbrook closed with 12 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 14 assists, 10 rebounds, two steals and one block over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 122-110 victory over the Grizzlies.
Westbrook recorded his 200th career regular-season triple-double, and his first as a member of the Nuggets. The 2017 MVP also posted season highs in both assists and rebounds while leading the bench in scoring against Memphis. The best years of his career are behind him, though the 36-year-old has proven he can still be a solid contributor in the league. Westbrook has averaged 10.8 points, 6.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.4 steals across 24.9 minutes per game in 13 regular-season outings (three starts).

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Sees increased role
Westbrook produced 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 23 minutes during Sunday's 105-90 loss to Memphis.
Nikola Jokic missed his second straight game for personal reasons, allowing Westbrook and several other players to absorb plenty of usage. Despite some decent counting stats at times, Westbrook is not off to the best start with his new team. Through 12 games, he's shooting just 35.1 percent from the field, 33.3 percent from beyond the arc and 68.6 percent from the free-throw line.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Returning to reserve role
Westbrook will come off the bench in Friday's matchup with the Heat.
With Jamal Murray (concussion) returning from a three-game absence, Westbrook will go back to his role as the No. 2 point guard. The 35-year-old has averaged 8.8 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists across 20.8 minutes in five games off the bench this season.
