NBA fans react to Russell Westbrook’s performance in the Raptors-Nuggets game

The Denver Nuggets hosted the Toronto Raptors in Colorado on Monday night.

The Nuggets won 121–119 and improved to 4–3 in their first seven games.

Russell Westbrook finished with 21 points, six rebounds, six assists and one steal on 6/10 shooting from the field and 1/5 from 3-point range in 34 minutes of playing time.

The 2017 MVP had one of his best games with the Nuggets.

Via NBA: “FANTASTIC defense by Russ to pin the W for Denver!”

Many NBA fans reacted to this on social media.

@FeelLikeGhetti: “Russell Westbrook is an ELITE defender and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.”

@graceofthecurls: “Russell Westbrook has instilled a wild energy in the young Nuggets and I love it”

Matt Brooks: “I love that high screen that DeAndre Jordan sets that gives Russell Westbrook full runway to get to the rim.

Great finale from Russ. Still so fast in the open court.”

@PensareBBall: “Russell Westbrook suffered the worst failure in NBA history. And the judges went for it. “

@waltdenver: “Russell Westbrook may still be the most athletic guy on the court, but he plays basketball like he’s wearing oven mitts.”

@NBABlackburn: “Very good play from Russell Westbrook so far.”

@ay_tenm: “I LOVE RUSSELL WESTBROOK ON MY TEAM!!!!!!!! Let’s GOOOOOOOOO”

Following the Raptors, the Nuggets play their next game on Wednesday night, staying at home to host the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Westbrook is in his 17th NBA season (and first with the Nuggets).

The future Hall of Famer also spent time with the Lakers, Clippers, Wizards, Thunder and Rockets.
