Westbrook ties LeBron for career triple-doubles

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Russell Westbrook recorded his 44th career triple-double on Saturday night, moving past Fat Lever and into a tie with LeBron James for sixth all time.

There's a catch, though: Westbrook did it in 395 fewer games than James.

"I mean, nothing," Westbrook said when asked what it means to be in such company. "I'm happy we won, that's the most important part for me. But I definitely don't take anything for granted. Like I said, every night I step on the floor I try to compete at a high level and thankful I can play the game I love every night.
