The 5 Best NBA Performances From Last Week: Russell Westbrook Edges Out the Nuggets
In a regular season full of triple-double performances, Westbrook ended it with a bang.

5. DeMar DeRozan vs. New York Knicks

In a game against the lowly defense of the New York Knicks Sunday night, DeMar DeRozan was hyper-efficient in a sparkling performance. Across 29 minutes, he piled on 35 points on 11 of 15 from the field and 11 of 15 from the free throw line.

In his offensive onslaught, DeRozan used 40.2% of his team's possessions while on the floor and converted at a true shooting percentage of 81.0%. The Toronto Raptors won the road game by a count of 110 to 97 and DeRozan was the main reason why, as he posted a nERD of 51.92 -- more than twice that of the Knicks' best player.
