Published in The Saudi Gazette on 13 - 03 - 2017

Russell Westbrook collected his 32nd triple-double of the season to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 112-104 victory over the Utah Jazz Saturday at the Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Westbrook posted 33 points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds to break a tie with Wilt Chamberlain (1967-68) for second place on the triple-double list.
Oscar Robertson set the record of 41 in 1961-62.
Westbrook continues to average a triple-double and lead the NBA in scoring. Oklahoma City is 26-6 in games he records a triple-double. Victor Oladipo added 22 points.
Utah was without center Rudy Gobert and forward Derrick Favors because of leg soreness while Gordon Hayward played only 21 minutes, finishing with nine points - 13 below his average.
Pistons 112, Knicks 92: Tobias Harris poured in a season-high 28 points to lead the Detroit over fading New York.
Andre Drummond notched his 45th double-double with 24 points and 15 rebounds and Reggie Jackson contributed 19 points and eight assists for Detroit, which has won four of its last five.
Clippers 112, Sixers 100: Chris Paul scored a season-high 30 points and DeAndre Jordan added 19 points and 20 rebounds as Los Angeles defeated Philadelphia.
Los Angeles won its fourth game in its last five games. The victory was their 11th in their last twelve games against Philadelphia as they drew to within one game of the Utah Jazz for fourth place in the Western Conference.
Hawks 107, Grizzlies 90: Taurean Prince scored 17 points, Paul Millsap had 16 points and 11 rebounds and Dennis Schroder added 16 points to lead Atlanta to a victory over Memphis at FedExForum.
The Hawks, coming off a six-game homestand, dealt the Grizzlies their fifth straight loss, a season-high futility streak.
Suns 100, Mavericks 98: Devin Booker drilled a turnaround jumper at the buzzer to lift Phoenix to a victory over Dallas at American Airlines Center.
The Suns finished the game with an 8-2 kick to snap a two-game losing streak. Booker scored all eight points to finish with a game-high 36 on 12-of-20 shooting.
Spurs 107, Warriors 85: Patty Mills scored 21 points, all in the first half, to lead San Antonio to a victory over reeling Golden State at AT&T Center in a battle between the top teams in the NBA.
The win pulled San Antonio within a half-game of Golden State for the top record in the league and the Western Conference.
Bucks 102, Timberwolves 95: Once again, defense saved the day for Milwaukee, who extended its winning streak to a season-high six games with a victory over Minnesota at the Bradley Center.
The Bucks recorded six defensive stops over the final 2:48 to hold off a Timberwolves team that trailed by one point to start the fourth quarter and erased a nine-point deficit to get within two on Ricky Rubio's jumper with 2:49 to play.
Pelicans 125, Hornets 122 (OT): Anthony Davis celebrated his 24th birthday in style and New Orleans was the beneficiary.
Davis erupted for 46 points and 21 rebounds and was at his best in the clutch, lifting the Pelicans to an overtime victory over Charlotte at the Spectrum Center.
