Russell Westbrook went full Russell Westbrook in the third quarter of Game 5 against the Rockets, turning a seven-point halftime deficit into a five-point Thunder lead with a blistering 20-point frame.

Westbrook capped his masterful quarter with this incredible sequence: swooping in to collect his own free-throw miss, dribbling through a maze of Rockets bodies, tiptoeing along the baseline, avoiding a trap in the corner, finally emerging on the right wing with three defenders in pursuit, and pulling up on dime to drill a 3-ball.
