Westbrook leads Thunder over Pacers
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 26 - 02 - 2015

OKLAHOMA CITY — Russell Westbrook registered his third triple double of the season as the Oklahoma City Thunder posted their season high tying seventh consecutive win with a 105-92 victory over Indiana Tuesday.
Westbrook finished with 20 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists for the 11th triple double of his career.
Serge Ibaka tallied 23 points with 10 rebounds and three blocks, while Enes Kanter added 15 points with five rebounds in the win.
“We know teams are going to make runs. We did a great job of sticking together,” said Westbrook.
C.J. Miles scored 15 of his 21 in the third quarter and George Hill chipped in with 13 points and eight assists for the Pacers, which had a three-game win streak clipped.
Ibaka nailed a three-pointer late in the first quarter to cap a 7-0 surge for a 13-point Thunder lead. Oklahoma City lead 30-20 after the first quarter.
Indiana trailed by as many as 15 points in the second, but the Pacers went on an 11-2 burst to cut the deficit to six. Miles' jumper just before the half pulled the Pacers within 48-42 at halftime.
Oklahoma City maintained its edge in the third, but Indiana kept it close until the final minutes.
Warriors 114, Wizards 107: Guard Stephen Curry scored 32 points in his return from a foot injury as Golden State rebounded from a loss with a victory over Washington.
Guard Klay Thompson had 17 points and forward Marreese Speights 16 for the Warriors.
Curry made 11 of 18 shots, including five three-pointers with eight assists in the second stop on a six-game road trip.
The All-Star missed his first game of the season on Sunday due to right foot soreness when the Warriors lost to Indiana.
Cavaliers 102, Pistons 93: Kevin Love scored 24 points, all on his career-high tying eight three-pointers as Cleveland erased a second-half deficit to down Detroit.
The power forward made four of his three-pointers in the third quarter when the Cavaliers, who have won 17 of their last 19 games, took control.
LeBron James racked up 19 points, 11 assists and seven rebounds and overcame nine turnovers for Cleveland, who moved within a half-game of Chicago for the Central Division lead.
In the process, he moved past Scottie Pippen for first place on the NBA career list for forwards. James has 6,142 assists, seven more than Pippen.
Mavericks 99, Raptors 92: A pair of backups led Dallas' second-half charge as the Mavericks earned a comeback victory over Toronto.
Reserve guards Devin Harris and J.J. Barea combined for 27 points and eight assists as Dallas (39-20) rallied from a 13-point deficit. — Agencies
