Russell Westbrook serving one-game suspension Monday as Thunder host Heat
Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook is suspended for Monday's game against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Westbrook is serving an automatic one-game suspension for picking up his 16th technical foul of the season. He'll face another suspension for every two techs he receives over the Thunder's 11 remaining games. Dennis Schroder will start in Westbrook's place and Raymond Felton will handle backup point guard duties. Paul George should be busy.
Westbrook is putting up 54.8 FanDuel points per game this season. He's on pace to average a triple-double for a third straight year, with 22.9 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 10.5 assists per contest.
