Westbrook stars for Thunder

TORONTO (AP) -- Oklahoma City's Russell Westbrook recorded his seventh triple-double for March -- the most in a month since Michael Jordan also had seven in April, 1989 -- and led the Thunder to a 119-100 win at Toronto on Monday, stretching the team's winning streak to eight straight.

The Thunder have already clinched the NBA's Northwest Division, while the Southwest has been secured by San Antonio, who had the luxury of resting their experienced star trio and still won at Memphis.

Among other key results in the run towards the playoffs, the Los Angeles Clippers cruised past Boston and tightened their grip on fourth in the Western Conference, while Atlanta narrowly held off a fast-finishing Chicago and retained outright top spot in the Southeast Division.

Westbrook had 26 points, 12 assists and 11 rebounds for the Thunder and put himself up alongside two of the all-time greats. Not only did he match Jordan's effort of seven in a month, but his 16 this season is the most since Magic Johnson had 17 in 1988-89.

DeMar DeRozan had 19 points for the Raptors, who lost at home for just the fourth time in 2016.

San Antonio were able to rest Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili and still win 101-87 at Memphis.

LaMarcus Aldridge had 31 points and 13 rebounds, connecting on 11 of 16 shots and going 9 of 11 from the foul line.

Atlanta's Jeff Teague scored 26 points, including two free throws with just over six seconds to play which secured a 102-100 win at Chicago.
