A low scoring affair between two teams that shot a lowly percentage from the field was capped off by only two stand out box score performances from unsurprising leaders . The Los Angeles Clippers rallied behind all - star point guard Chris Paul , who posted an impressive stat line of 15 points , nine assists and 11 rebounds , nearing a triple - double . Russell Westbrook , on the other end of the floor , posted 35 points on 14 - of - 30 shooting , to go along with six rebounds and five assists . The Thunder , as a unit , shot just 41 percent from the field , which would have been bad , save for the Los Angeles Clippers , who shot worse . The Clippers posted a 39 percent from the field as a unit and shot themselves out of many opportunities to take the lead on their home court . Only one team was able to walk away with a perfect record , and the Westbrook led Thunder made that happen on their way to a 40 start to the season . The Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 85 - 83 at Staples Center on Wednesday . Two undefeated records to open the season and only one was going to leave with that sterling mark still in tact . The Thunder ( 40 ) came away with an offensively sloppy , but defensively sound victory , save for Russell Westbrook , who continues to pack the box score with phenomenal numbers . DeAndre Jordan was able to put one shot back with :3 seconds left in regulation to cut the lead to two points , but even after Westbrook missed both free throws , the Clippers ran out of time before being able to get a shot off to tie or win the game . Both the Thunder and the Clippers ( 3 - 1 ) shot far below average from the field . Los Angeles completed just 39 percent of their field goals , while Oklahoma City just edged them out with a lowly 41 percent of their own . The Thunder were led by Westbrook , who put forth 35 points , six rebounds and five assists in 33 minutes . Nobody else on the team put up double figures , and Victor Oladipo still has not found a rhythm , as he finished with nine points on 3 - of - 11 shooting . Chris Paul rounded out the stat sheet with a near triple - double , totalling 15 points , nine assists and 11 rebounds , while Marreese Speights continues to add scoring depth off the bench , as the Warriors import added 14 points on 6 - of - 9 shooting in 16 minutes . Next up , the Thunder face a very difficult second game of a back - to - back in Golden State against the Warriors , while the Clippers have a day off before visiting the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday .
