He used to play on my AAU team,” Russell Westbrook said jokingly after an exchange with Jalen Green. “Talking to me like I’m a little ass kid.”
Russell Westbrook and Jalen Green shared a hilarious exchange during the Houston Rockets' rout of the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night.
The Rockets' two top scorers have a chance to be voted into the NBA All-Star Game, recognition their teammates say both players earned. So we had them pitch it.
The Denver Nuggets are 28-19 after three straight losses on their current five-game road trip. Currently sitting at fourth place in the Western Conference, the Nuggets have mostly bounced back from an inconsistent start to the season, though weaknesses on defense continue to show.
Jalen Brunson had 30 points and 15 assists, OG Anunoby scored 23 points and the New York Knicks beat the Denver Nuggets 122-112 on Wednesday night for their fifth straight victory.
For a team that has struggled internally on defense for the better part of most of the year, the Knicks' strong performance shows that the team is improving when it matters most. The victory is New York's fifth straight and sixth victory in their last seven tries.

Keon Johnson led a balanced Brooklyn attack with 18 points, and the Nets snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 104-83 win over the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night.
With the win, the Knicks (32-16) have won five in a row and secured their second sweep of the Nuggets in the last three seasons. Though the Knicks did not reach their massive tally of 143 that appeared in their column in each of the last two games, the 408 points that have combined to earn are the most they've had in any trio in franchise history.
