The Oklahoma City Thunder (37 - 13) defeated the Washington Wizards (21 - 25) 114 - 98 on Monday night. The Thunder got off to a double - digit lead in the first quarter and never looked back after that. In fact, they never lost a single quarter and never relinquished their lead after the first. Oklahoma City was dominant on the boards, as they nearly doubled up the Wizards rebounding 53 to 27. The Thunder also shot lights out, as they hit 52 percent of their field goal attempts in the win. This marks Washington’s fourth loss in their last five games. Only four players scored in double - figures, with Bradley Beal leading the team with 18 points off the bench. John Wall had an up - and - down game, as he tallied 17 points, eight assists, four rebounds, two steals and three blocks, but turned the ball over six times and missed all four of his three - point attempts. It wo n't get much easier in the Wizards next game, as they take on the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday. There haven’t been many games this season when all three of the Thunder studs have been at full force, but that was the case on Monday. Russell Westbrook out together yet another triple - double, as he accumulated 17 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists en route to his seventh triple - double of the year in the win. Kevin Durant led the team with 28 points and snatched down nine rebounds as well. The most promising performance came from Serge Ibaka though, as he double - doubled in a 19 - point outing. Oklahoma City will look to keep up their winning ways against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday, in a matchup where they should be double - digit favorites.
