The visiting Oklahoma City Thunder pulled out a win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday, 114 - 105. The Thunder (27 - 19) capped off a six - game road trip on Wednesday, finishing 3 - 3 during the stretch thanks to the win in New Orleans. Point guard Russell Westbrook recorded what has become an almost routine triple - double in the victory, scoring 27 points to go with 12 rebounds and 10 assists. The triple - double, Westbrook's 24th of the season, keeps the All-Star on pace to eclipse Wilt Chamberlain's ridiculous record of 41 triple - doubles in one season. In addition to typical strong play from Westbrook, the Thunder benefited from the partial absence of Pelicans superstar Anthony Davis, who left the game with a quad contusion. With the New Orleans frontcourt depleted, OKC's big men were able to feast on the boards. The team held an eight - rebound advantage and both Steven Adams and Enes Kanter posted double - doubles in the win. Due in part to the departure of Davis, New Orleans (18 - 28) relied heavily on bench production to keep the game close. Guard E'Twaun Moore came off the bench for 18 points, a team high, and pulled down eight rebounds. Three members of the second unit finished with double digit points totals, and sixth man Tyreke Evans provided help facilitating the offense as he dished out nine assists. Ultimately, however, Davis's absence and a thin frontcourt ended up being problematic for the Pelicans. In addition to the rebounding deficit, New Orleans saw 11 of its shots blocked on the night. OKC will host the Mavericks on Thursday, while New Orleans will play host to the Spurs on Friday.
