Russell Westbrook has done the IMPOSSIBLE! Oscar Robertson’s 41-year-old record is broken by the triple-double master. Legit. Westbrook has defeated the record by one triple-double to make it 182 triple-doubles in his career; Oscar Robertson only had 181 career triple-doubles.
Historical times for the Washington Wizards as they are suiting/gearing up for the play-in tournament. Russell Westbrook averaged 21 points, 16 assists, and 10 rebounds. The final rebound became the most exciting one to claim his dominance, to claim his throne like the champ he is. Oscar Robertson was averaging a triple-double each game too, so it was very exciting seeing this happen.
This is new heights for Russell Westbrook as they now prepare for the playoffs, as they hoping to continue their push onwards. This gives them motivation and more drive in their ambition to win playoff games. What would this mean for the team if they got past the first round? That would be addressed as one of the biggest things this season has seen so far.
However, currently, we are witnessing history in the making. So now, see the video that made him the champion of triple-doubles.

According to multiple reports, the Memphis Grizzlies are expected to have a bigger trade market for Ja Morant heading into this summer’s offseason.
This comes after Ja Morant informed teammates and former coaches that he is done playing for the Grizzlies and wants to move to a different organization. While his value may not increase, more teams will be interested in acquiring his services.
“There will be teams that will feel like they didn’t get what they wanted in the draft or free agency, and that’s when something could happen for Ja,” a Western Conference executive told ESPN.
This saga between the Grizzlies and Morant may not officially conclude until the draft and free agency is over. His name will be a hot topic once the playoffs end.
While general manager Zach Kleiman didn’t go into details concerning the 26-year-old’s future with the organization, he did say that everyone was on the same page understanding-wise.
“Ja’s been a pro,” Kleiman said. “I think everyone is on the same page as much as we can be. I won’t speculate on any potential transactions.”
Morant has been on and off the market since his one game suspension following an arugment he had with his head coach Tuomas Iisalo. Even with both sides showing professionalism, it has been clear around the league that a departure is increasingly most likely to happen.
According to the Washington Wizards general manager Will Dawkins, the organization has made the decision to keep head coach Brian Keefe for next season.
This will be his third season with the team, as Washington is signaling an end to their rebuilding era, thanks in largely to Anthony Davis and Trae Young.
During a time of development over number of wins, higher ups credited Keefe for developing the likes of Alex Sarr, Kyshawn George, Tre Johnson, Will Riley, and Jamir Watkin.
“I think Brian has done a remarkable job,” Winger said. “He’s developed young athletes. He’s built a culture of competitiveness, accountability, togetherness and joy. I’m very, very pleased with the job that Brian has done.”
Keefe was promoted from lead assistant to interim head coach halfway through the 2023-24 season following Wes Unseld Jr.’s firing, and was hired officially in May of 2024.
According to multiple reports, the Chicago Bulls will be giving Jaden Ivey his salary in full despite being waived for detrimental conduct within the organization. This decision comes after Ivey went on unhinged rants of homophobia, calling out other players, and religion.
In total, the 24-year-old will be making the $10.1 million he was originally owed for this season. Once he clears waivers, Ivey will be an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any team that wants him.
Beyond the unhinged rants online, he reportedly harassed reporters, told Chicago that Jesus healed his knee (which after an MRI revealed his knee was, in fact, not healed), made players uncomfortable with the constant preaching, and told players who were “righteous and unrighteous.”
Head coach Billy Donovan addressed the situation publicly soon after he was waived.
“I think there’s a certain level of standards and expectations that are here,” Donovan said. “We have people from all different walks of life working in the building and players from all different walks of life. We’ve got to all be professional. I think there’s got to be a high level of respect for one another, and we got to help each other and then be accountable to those standards.”
