"OK!"
"Alright!"
Everyone from the Thunder was listening to Westbrook's command.
Timeout over.
Using a double screen, Westbrook broke free from Zeng Xingyang's entanglement, and with a burst of speed, flew to the basket for a contested layup against Jokic.
The difficulty of this shot was extremely high, but Westbrook still managed to make it.
