Russell Westbrook Scores 17 Points, 5 Assists for Kings in Lopsided Loss

Sacramento Kings guard Russell Westbrook delivered 17 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists during the team's 136-105 blowout defeat against the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night. Westbrook's performance came as the short-handed Kings, missing Zach LaVine, Dennis Schroder, and Domantas Sabonis, struggled to contain Nikola Jokić's dominant effort. This loss extended Sacramento's miseries, dropping their record to 6-19, their second consecutive defeat and 14th in 17 games since early November.
