Nets fans give Russell Westbrook standing ovation after he earns 33rd triple double

The Brooklyn Nets have the worst record in the NBA at 12-54, so there hasn't been much for fans to cheer this season at the Barclays Center. On Tuesday night, Nets fans found reason to applaud: Russell Westbrook.

The Thunder guard and MVP favorite tallied his 33rd triple double of the season on Tuesday. When he brought down his 10th rebound to secure a triple double, some Nets fans even gave him a standing ovation.

The Barclays Center also chanted "M-V-P" during Wednesday's game.

Westbrook finished Wednesday's game with 25 points, 19 assists and 12 rebounds.
