Toronto Raptors vs. Oklahoma City Thunder - Recap - March 08, 2015 - ESPN
OKLAHOMA CITY -- Even against a fellow All-Star, Russell Westbrook's dominance continued.
Oklahoma City's dynamic point guard posted his fifth triple-double in six games to help the Thunder beat the Toronto Raptors 108-104 on Sunday night.
Westbrook, the NBA's leading scorer, had 30 points, matched a career high with 17 assists and grabbed 11 rebounds for his seventh triple-double of the season and 15th of his career. He did much of the damage against Kyle Lowry, the starting point guard for the Eastern Conference All-Stars.
"He's playing unbelievable basketball right now," said Lowry, who finished with 14 points on 5-for-15 shooting. "The man is unbelievable, and he's pretty much carrying their team right now."
Westbrook, the All-Star MVP and reigning Western Conference player of the month, said he's aware of how special triple-doubles are.
"It crosses my mind when we win, which is the most important thing," he said.
