Thunder Rebounding Wills Team to Victory

If the first possession was any indication, the Thunder made it a priority to crash the glass against the Trail Blazers. The Thunder pulled down four offensive rebounds on their first possession, closing the first quarter with seven offensive rebounds.

Steven Adams Adams was a monster on the boards tonight. Though Adams did not have the most productive offensive day, 3-11 for seven points, the Thunder big made his presence felt on the boards. Adams finished with 13 rebounds, nine of which came on the offensive end. 

The Thunder saw contributions from just about everyone on the boards. Andre Roberson had 11 rebounds, Victor Oladipo matched Adams with 13 and Joffrey Lauvergne came off the bench to grab nine.

Andre Roberson was fantastic. Roberson finished with a double-double, 14 points and 11 rebounds. 

Russell Westbrook had another usual performance in his books. Westbrook went 16-34 from the floor to score 42 points and dishing out eight assists along the way.

The Thunder are now 30-22 on the season and are currently .5 game behind Memphis for the 6th seed. 

With Enes Kanter out the Thunder hope they can stay afloat until he is able to make his comeback.

The Thunder will play at Indiana tomorrow at 6:00 p.m.
