The Portland Trail Blazers overcame a whopping output from OKC's Russell Westbrook on Thursday thanks to stellar play from stars of their own. Portland's Damian Lillard led the team with 33 points while shooting 11 - of - 23, adding four rebounds and five assists. Shooting guard C.J. McCollum added another 18 points. Perhaps the most impressive outing for the Blazers, though, was that of newly - acquired big man Jusuf Nurkic. Nurkic shot 7 - of - 10 for 18 points to go along with 12 rebounds, six assists, five blocks, and two steals. The near five - by - five was one of the more impressive performances of Nurkic's young career. For OKC, meanwhile, superstar Russell Westbrook put on a show. Westbrook shot just 12 - of - 36 but went 15 - of - 15 from the line and had six three - pointers en route to a whopping 45 points. He added eight rebounds and four assists.
