Drops seven dimes in loss
Westbrook provided 16 points (6-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and four steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 114-103 loss to the Suns.
Analysis
Westbrook continues to plod through the schedule with solid totals during Sacramento's lost season. Injuries have curtailed his output recently, but his 31 minutes of court time were an encouraging sign. It's way too soon to bench Westbrook, but he's almost certain to go elsewhere after his one-year deal expires, and the Kings need to start inspecting value on the bench as they look to rebuild.

Off injury report for Sunday
Westbrook (thigh) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Lakers.
Analysis
Westbrook missed Thursday's win over Dallas due to a right thigh contusion, though he's set to play Sunday. The veteran point guard's return will likely push Devin Carter to the bench. In eight February appearances, Westbrook averaged 14.5 points, 4.3 assists and 2.5 rebounds across 24.4 minutes per game.

Ruled out Thursday
Westbrook is out for Thursday's game against Dallas with a bruised right thigh.
Analysis
The veteran guard's next opportunity to play comes Sunday against the Lakers. With Westbrook sitting out Thursday, Nique Clifford and Devin Carter should both see a larger share of backcourt minutes.

Drops team-high 22 in loss
Westbrook finished with 22 points (10-19 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 128-97 loss to the Rockets.
Analysis
The 22 points were a team high in the rout, as only three other Kings even managed to score in double digits. Westbrook has topped 20 points in back-to-back games, but consistent playing time could be tough to come by for the 37-year-old with Sacramento in full tank mode. Through eight games in February, he's played more than 30 minutes only twice, averaging 14.5 points, 4.3 assists, 2.5 boards and 1.9 threes in 24.4 minutes a contest.
