Russell Westbrook extended his triple-double streak to six straight games during the Thunder's 102-99 win in Atlanta over the Hawks. He finished with 32 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists in the victory, which was Oklahoma City's sixth in a row.
It's the longest statistical streak of triple-doubles in the NBA since 1989, when Michael Jordan accomplished the feat in seven straight games. Westbrook will have the chance to tie Jordan's mark at home against the Rockets on Thursday.
The Hawks, meanwhile, are a complete disaster. Atlanta has now lost seven in a row, and 10 of its last 11 contests.
