Russell Westbrook collected his third consecutive triple-double in an Oklahoma City loss to Portland on Friday. Westbrook had 40 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists. Westbrook made three free throws to cut the Portland lead to 1 with 2-seconds remaining.

He either tried to miss the final free throw or thought he missed it because he rushed in for a rebound and got knocked down. While he was on the ground, Portland inbounded the ball and Andre Robertson caught him with a knee. A knee that left a damn dent in the side of his head.

No word yet on what exact injury Westbrook suffered on the play. All we know for sure is that the OKC loss puts the Thunder in a rough spot if Russ misses any time. The Pelicans have someone won four straight without Anthony Davis and are just a half-game out of the 8-seed. And the Phoenix Suns are a half-game behind the Pelicans.
