Russell Westbrook made the right play at the right time again, swinging a pass to Victor Oladipo for an open 3-pointer that slammed the door on New Orleans’ comeback attempt and completed a historically significant triple-double for the Oklahoma City superstar. Westbrook had 27 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists, passing Larry Bird with his 60th career triple-double, and the Thunder beat the Pelicans 114-105 on Wednesday night. The accomplishment was not lost on Westbrook, who at 28 is too young to have enjoyed Bird’s best basketball with Boston when it happened, but certainly understands what it means to be in the same conversation.

Matthews’ 23rd goal helps Maple Leafs beat Red Wings 4-0 (Sports Betting News)Matthews’ 23rd goal helps Maple Leafs beat Red Wings 4-0 (Sports Betting News)
The Toronto Maple Leafs made quite an investment in goaltender Frederik Andersen last summer, trading a first- and second-round pick to Anaheim to acquire the goaltender and giving him a $25 million, five-year deal. Andersen made 22 saves for his second straight shutout, third this season, and Auston Matthews scored early in the first period, leading Toronto over the Detroit Red Wings 4-0 on Wednesday night. Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock said the Andersen trade has been ”huge” for the franchise’s turnaround.
