The NBA was back in action for a slate of games on Tuesday (January 29). Among the winning teams were the Oklahoma City Thunder, San Antonio Spurs, and Philadelphia 76ers. Below are five of the players who gave standout performances for the winning squads.
Russell Westbrook - Oklahoma City Thunder
Westbrook is known for his ability to get the triple-double and he did that once again on Tuesday night. The former NBA MVP scored 23 points, collected 14 rebounds, and gave out 14 assists to teammates. In the end, Oklahoma City defeated the Orlando Magic, 126-117.

Giannis Antetokounmpo - Milwaukee Bucks
Greek Freak was just two rebounds shy of another triple-double for his career. However, he's probably more than happy with a double-double of 21 points and 11 assists, along with eight boards, in a win over Detroit.

D'Angelo Russell - Brooklyn Nets
When the season started, people may not have been giving much credit to the Brooklyn Nets. They're starting to pay more attention now and D'Angelo Russell has been a big part of it. The team has won 11 of their 14 games this month, including last night's against the Bulls. Russell had 30 points and seven assists in the win. An All-Star spot may be on the way.
D'Angelo Russell should be an All-Star!
