Russell Westbrook

Should I get him? · 12-team 9-cat
Worth watching

Worth watching: he should miss much of this week, so there's no rush.

  • No. 188 in our 9-cat rankings.
  • Not in a preseason box score yet; 64 games, 28.9 min last season; turns 38 in November, so we expect a small dip and a few more rest games.
  • About the same role as last season: 29 minutes a game.
  • 2 games this week (Nov 6–8), about a 15% chance he plays each.
  • When Hunter sat since last season, he played 27 minutes instead of 23 (12 games).
