Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Double-doubles in start Saturday
Westbrook accumulated 22 points (9-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt), 11 assists, four rebounds and one steal in 37 minutes during Saturday's 126-123 loss to the Wizards.
The veteran point guard received the starting nod due to Aaron Gordon (calf) being sidelined in the second night of a back-to-back set. Westbrook finished as the club's third-leading scorer and recorded a game-high 11 assists en route to his 10th double-double on the season. The 36-year-old will likely continue to join the starting five whenever Gordon is sidelined due to injury management. Westbrook has made 32 starts this season, during which he has averaged 14.9 points, 6.8 assists, 5.9 rebounds and 1.6 steals across 31.2 minutes per game.

Westbrook logged 19 points (8-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three steals over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 115-95 loss to the Timberwolves.
Making his second straight start as the Nuggets go with a smaller lineup while Aaron Gordon (calf) is sidelined, Westbrook had an efficient shooting night while nabbing his highest steal total since Jan. 4.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Hits for 16 in spot start
Westbrook finished Monday's 140-127 win over Oklahoma City with 16 points (6-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one block over 33 minutes.
With Aaron Gordon (calf) unavailable, Westbrook slid into the starting five and dished his highest assist total since Feb. 20. The 36-year-old guard is a long way from his days of being a nightly threat for a triple-double, but Westbrook can still be productive. He's drained at least one three-pointer in seven straight games (three starts), averaging 12.7 points, 5.3 boards, 4.6 assists, 1.9 threes, 1.0 steals and 0.9 blocks in 29.6 minutes over that stretch.

Westbrook got the starting nod Sunday due to Aaron Gordon (ankle) being inactive, providing a lift to Denver offensively by finishing as one of three Nuggets with six or more assists to go along with a double-digit scoring total. Westbrook has started in 28 contests this season, recording at least 10 points and five assists in 16 of those outings.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: Seven assists in return Thursday
Westbrook (hamstring) registered eight points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven assists and three rebounds over 26 minutes during Thursday's 129-115 win over the Hornets.
Westbrook struggled with efficiency during his return from a seven-game absence due to a left hamstring strain. However, the veteran playmaker led the Denver bench in assists during his limited run. Westbrook became a mainstay in the starting five during January, but it's unclear if he'll unseat Christian Braun for a spot on the top unit now that he's healthy again.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook: No timetable for return
Nuggets head coach Mike Malone said Monday that Westbrook is without a timeline to return to action while he recovers from a left hamstring strain, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.
Westbrook suffered the injury in Friday's win over the 76ers and will miss a second straight game Monday versus the Pelicans. Given Malone's comments, Westbrook appears likely to remain out through the All-Star break. Christian Braun will likely remain in the Nuggets' starting lineup while Westbrook works on his rehab and recovery, and Jalen Pickett could enter the rotation as Jamal Murray's top backup at point guard.
