Kiwi Steven Adams shot 14 points but sat out the entire final quarter as the Oklahoma City Thunder went down to the Portland Trail Blazers 114-95 in the NBA today.
Russell Westbrook also sat out the final quarter with Portland leading 92-71 after three periods.
Westbrook finished with 20 points(7/19 FG), six rebounds and six assists in 27 minutes - the second straight game he has failed to crack the triple-double plateau after rattling off seven in a row.
He was off his league-leading average of 31.1 points a game for the Thunder, who have lost two of their last three after a six-game winning streak.
Adams' 14 points (6/10 FG), four boards and four steals in 26 minutes was not enough to contain the Blazers.
The Thunder shot just 38 per cent from the floor for the game while the Blazers finished with 54 per cent.
OKC play the Utah Jazz tomorrow.
Steph Curry scored a team-high 30 points, and Draymond Green made a key strip of Anthony Davis in the final three seconds to lift the Golden State Warriors to a 113-109 road victory over the New Orleans Pelicans.
