Another day, another Russell Westbrook record.And this one might have been more impressive than any of his previous feats.Posting 57 points on 21-of-40 shooting, Westbrook completed his 38th triple-double of the season, adding 13 boards and 11 assists in the 114-106 overtime victory over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night. It also happened to be the biggest comeback in the history of the franchise.In the fourth quarter and overtime combined, Westbrook amassed 16 points, seven rebounds and three-assists.In the closing seconds of regulation, Westbrook had an MVP moment, draining a ridiculous, off-balanced three-pointer that not only tied the game, but also allowed him to pass the 50-point threshold.In overtime, Westbrook made NBA history when he became the first player to record a triple-double with over 53 points in a game, passing a record shared by Wilt Chamberlain and James Harden.

It was also just the 10th 50-plus point game triple-double in league history. 

This performance did wonders for his MVP consideration, especially due to his late-game heroics that created an awareness of how great he has been at closing games this year.

After the game, he couldn’t help but smile.

Can you blame him? Usually he's able to hide his emotion pretty well after games with the media, but this was a special night.

His 38 triple-doubles on the season are just three shy of Oscar Robertson’s all-time single season record of 41 in the 1961-1962 season. With eight games remaining, it seems as though Brodie has a great chance at making even more history.

Averaging 31.4 points, 10.5 rebounds and 10.4 assists per contest this year, Westbrook will almost undoubtedly become the first player to average a triple-double during an entire season since Robertson, which is perhaps the most impressive aspect of his dream-like season that’s been filled with incredible performances on a nightly basis.

Moving forward, the 43-31 Thunder will be battling for position between the fourth and seventh Western Conference seeds heading into the playoffs. Avoiding the Golden State Warriors, San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets in the first round would require the Thunder to finish in either fourth or fifth place. 

Brodie and the Thunder will host the San Antonio Spurs on Friday on the first of a three-game homestand, then welcoming the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday and Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday. They will then head off on a four-game road trip, taking on the Memphis Grizzlies, Phoenix Suns, Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves before hosting the Nuggets in their final regular season game.
