Celtics meet up with Westbrook and the Thunder on Sunday night

December 11, 2016

The Boston Celtics have gone 1-5 so far this season against teams that are in the top four in their respective conference. 

The Celtics will have another chance against an elite team when they play at Oklahoma City on Sunday night.

The Thunder are 14-9 and at the top of the Northwest division. The Celtics are 13-10 and three games behind Toronto in the Atlantic division.  

Russell Westbrook has seven straight triple doubles. That ties him with Michael Jordan, who accomplished the feat during the 1988/1989 season. Westbrook is currently averaging a triple double. Isaiah Thomas has been ruled out for the Celtics.
