The Charlotte Hornets defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder , 113 - 101 , at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Sunday afternoon . There is naturally no actual downside to having Russell Westbrook on your squad , but his mere presence can often serve to elevate the game of the opposing point guard . The motivation of playing against the best in the league seemed to give Kemba Walker , an All-Star in his own right , a bit of an extra step Sunday , as he led the Hornets ( 36 - 41 ) to a crucial upset road victory with 29 points , four assists , three rebounds and four steals . Walker was an outstanding 10 - of - 20 from the field overall and 6 - of - 12 from three - point range . Still in the hunt for a postseason berth , Charlotte came out strong in the first and third quarters , outscoring the Thunder ( 43 - 33 ) by a combined 56 - 38 margin during those periods . Although Westbrook did contribute yet another triple - double with 40 points , 13 rebounds , 10 assists and three steals , the Hornets played solid defense overall , causing 24 turnovers . Frank Kaminsky followed Walker with a bench - leading 18 points , which he supplemented with two rebounds , two steals and one block . Michael Kidd-Gilchrist followed with 16 points , six boards , one assist and two steals . Jeremy Lamb was productive as a reserve as well with 13 points , three boards and one steal . Cody Zeller contributed 11 points , four rebounds , two assists , one steal and one block . Nicolas Batum filled out the stat sheet with nine points , eight assists , seven rebounds and three steals . Victor Oladipo posted 19 points , six assists , three rebounds and one steal . Andre Roberson managed 12 points , six rebounds , one assist , one steal and one block . Enes Kanter led the bench with nine points and one rebound , while Jerami Grant was right behind him with eight points , three rebounds , one assist and one block .
