Russell Westbrook: (Hand) Will Play Friday
Westbrook (hand) will start Friday against the Knicks and won't be limited by a minute restriction, The Oklahoman reports.
Analysis:
Westbrook has only played two games for the Thunder this season but appears to be healthy enough to take on a full workload Friday. His reinsertion into the starting lineup will push Reggie Jackson to the bench. Despite the long time away from the court, Westbrook should be deployed in all formats moving forward.
