Russell Westbrook

PG, Houston Rockets

Russell Westbrook had a fantastic showing in Friday's 131-124 win over the Wolves, leading the Rockets to victory with a season-high 45 points on 16-of-27 shooting from the field and a perfect 13-of-13 run at the line.

Westbrook carried the load with James Harden being slowed by tightness in his thigh. Westbrook added six rebounds, 10 dimes ad a steal with only three turnovers to round out his line for the night. If the Beard misses any time whatsoever, expect Westbrook to flirt with top-20 value during that span as the Rockets' insurance policy.
