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 the Orlando Magic, Jalen Suggs has been diagnosed with trochlea injury in his left knee.
In him trying to return to the court, Suggs was experiencing discomfort in his knee, which prompted the organization to order extra imaging for their promising combo guard.
The further evaluation has confirmed the 23-year-old to be out indefinitely, as a treatment plan has been made with the intentions of him making a full recovery.
Suggs is averaging 16.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.7 assists this season.
According to the Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick, after suffering the injury during their win against the Los Angeles Clippers, Austin Reaves will undergo an MRI to determine the severity.
Reaves suffered the calf injury in the first quarter after playing the first nine minutes of the game. It was determined to be “right calf soreness.”
Even with this diagnosis, Los Angeles will have a more in-depth one to be done to make sure it’s just soreness. Redick did not have an update on when the talented guard would make his return to the court.
The 26-year-old, who is one of the better third options in the league currently, is averaging 19.1 points, 6.0 assists, and 4.2 rebounds this season. In the month of February, Reaves averaged 23.5 points and 6.1 assists.
Los Angeles is fourth in the West with a record of 37-21. Their next game is a rematch against the Clippers on Sunday.
According to the Philadelphia 76ers, Joel Embiid has officially been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to his left knee.
With ongoing issues involving his knee, and this season not exactly turning out the way Philly has hoped, both sides have come to an agreement to shut it down and begin rehab.
“The Philadelphia 76ers and Joel Embiid have been consulting with top specialists regarding ongoing issues with his left knee,” wrote the Sixers in their statement. “After further evaluation, it has been determined that he is medically unable to play and will miss the remainder of the season to focus on treatment and rehabilitation.
“We are working with medical experts to determine the exact treatment plan and will update media when we have more information. The team and specialists will continue working with Joel to ensure the best path forward for his long-term health and performance.”
The 30-year-old only played in 19 games this season, as last year was only 39 games. In his career, Embiid has never played 70 games in a season. He’s only has four seasons of playing 60-68 games. He’s played nine seasons in the National Basketball Association.
In his MVP season, Embiid only managed to play 66 games, which saw them be a second-round exit team.
Per Keith Smith’s report, Philadelphia could request a ‘medical retirement’ for Embiid if he’s unable to play a year from now. This is a greater possibility with many around the league saying his upcoming extension is basically untradeable.
“At that point, an independent doctor selected by the NBA and NBPA would examine Embiid. If agreed he can no longer play, his remaining contract would be wiped off the books for the Sixers.”
This season, the 76ers are 20-38 (12th in the East). They are three games back from the final Play-In spot (Chicago Bulls).
