Westbrook finished with 15 points on 5-for-17 shooting, but 10 of those points came in the fourth quarter and overtime. His putback with 3:37 to go in regulation, one of his four offensive rebounds on the night, gave the Nuggets their first lead at 93-92. Westbrook also made the defensive play of the game at the end of overtime as he deflected Nicolas Batum’s inbounds pass to James Harden with 10 seconds remaining and forced a turnover. “I know that play,” Westbrook said, referring to his time with the Clippers. “They have a dynamic roller with [Ivica Zubac], great cutters and guys that catch lobs. My job is to be able to be the low man and find ways to, excuse my language, f— s— up.”
