Triple-doubles have become more commonplace than ever – especially by Russell Westbrook, who already has 35 this season.
So, Westbrook’s 18points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds in the Thunder’s win over the 76ers tonight might not seem earthshattering.
But also consider that he went 6-for-6 from the field and 6-for-6 from the line.

James Harden had an awesome game-winner and quote earlier this week. Now, Westbrook responds with this historic triple-double.
This is an all-time great MVP race.
