Westbrook is in his first season playing for the Nuggets.

The future Hall of Famer has been a huge addition to the roster and fits in well with their best player, Nikola Jokic (who isn't playing on Tuesday).

Via Jake Coyne of Stats Perform: "There are nearly 2000 different two-man combos in the NBA this season that have played 60+ minutes together.

None of them are assisting each other at a higher per-minute rate than Nikola Jokic & Russell Westbrook, who have 120 assists to each other in 624 minutes played."
