Russell Westbrook’s Lakers-Nuggets performance goes viral

The Denver Nuggets suffered a tough loss on Friday night when they fell to the Dallas Mavericks in an NBA Cup game. This game was the return to the lineup for three-time MVP Nikola Jokic, who had missed three games due to personal reasons.

Jokic was dominant in his return, finishing with 33 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists. This performance was not enough for the Nuggets as they fell to Dallas by a final score of 123-120.

Back in action on Saturday against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Nuggets had a strong bounce-back effort. Former Lakers guard Russell Westbrook helped lead that charge, and his performance went viral.
