The Oklahoma City Thunder ( 18 - 9 ) dealt the struggling Los Angeles Lakers ( 4 - 23 ) yet another loss , winning 118 - 78 . Per usual , stars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook led the way for the Thunder . Durant wowed with 22 points in 30 minutes , made more impressive alongside 8 rebounds . Westbrook , coming off a 27 - point performance against Cleveland , put up just 13 . However , the All-Star also tacked on 11 assists , and his average of 9 per game puts him at second in the NBA behind the Kings ' Rajon Rondo . The Thunder 's win came as no surprise , as the Lakers have struggled mightily thus far this season . The team sits at last in the Western Conference , and holds the unfortunate distinction of second - worst record in the NBA , edging out only the Philadelphia 76ers . Despite the loss , Jordan Clarkson delivered a strong performance , posting 15 points and 4 rebounds . Clarkson has shown off his high potential of late , posting 12 points , four assists , and two steals in the Lakers ' previous matchup against Houston . The Lakers ' woes have persisted throughout the season , and their bad luck looks unlikely to change any time soon , as they face road matchups in four of their final six games of the calendar year . Their next game will be in Denver on Tuesday . OKC , on the other hand , has established themselves as a legitimate contender early on in the season . They will face the fourth - seed Clippers on Monday in Los Angeles .
