Pamela Owens+FollowHow Good Was Houston Westbrook?With Westbrook officially signing with the Kings after years of ups and downs, it’s worth remembering just how dominant he was in Houston’s small-ball era. At one point, he averaged 33.2 PPG, 7.9 RPG, 7.8 APG on 53.6% FG over 17 games — blowing past defenses with relentless drives and athleticism. Houston went 10–2 in that stretch, and Russ looked unstoppable. He’s had rough stretches since then, but this version of Westbrook was special. #NBA #Westbrook #HoustonRockets #NBAHistory #Kings #NBATalk #MVP #Sports 181Share
