Steven Adams has rebounded from an ankle injury to notch a double-double in a 102-99 away win over Atlanta.

Adams' 12-point, 10-rebound effort was his fourth double-double of the season.

Adams' Thunder teammate Russell Westbrook extended his streak of triple-doubles to six straight NBA games.

Westbrook's streak is the NBA's longest since 1989, when Michael Jordan reached double figures in points, rebounds and assists in seven straight games.

The 28-year-old Westbrook achieved the feat during the third quarter of the clash with the Hawks, finishing the game with 32 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists.

On Friday the Thunder will return home and take on the Houston Rockets.
