The Thunder star will be available for OKC's game Monday against the Blazers.
Russell Westbrook will no longer be suspended for the Thunder's Monday night game against the Blazers, the NBA has announced. A technical foul that was issued to the Oklahoma City star Sunday night has been rescinded, dropping his season total to 15, one below the amount that triggers an automatic one-game suspension.
Westbrook received the technical during the fourth quarter of the Thunder's 116-104 loss Sunday night to the Pacers.
This decision is a major break for the Thunder, who are battling the Pelicans for the Western Conference's final playoff spot. Both teams are 43-37, but New Orleans owns the tie-breaker between the two teams, meaning Oklahoma City is, right now, essentially a game out.
More to come.
