罢赛获额外休息时间 卫少确定G5回归对决前东家雷霆
火箭球星卫斯布鲁克（Russell Westbrook）因受到右侧股四头肌拉伤影响，还未在季后赛亮相。但根据《The Athletic》记者艾科（Kelly Iko）指出，这位MVP级控卫确定将在和雷霆的系列赛第5战回归。
火箭与雷霆的G5本该在台湾时间周四进行，但因受非裔男子布雷克（Jacob Blake）遭开枪的种族议题影响，导致球员罢赛、NBA季后赛停摆3天。当时卫斯布鲁克就被列为可能上场名单，如今多了几天休息时间，加上在队内的五打五对抗赛中状况绝佳，也让他确定会在30日首度身披火箭球衣于季后赛亮相。
Russell Westbrook will play in Game 5 on Saturday, according to multiple sources. Westbrook was ready and would have played in the originally scheduled game on Wednesday, prior to the walkout.
据《ESPN》名记者沃纳洛斯基（Adrian Wojnarowski）表示，「卫斯布鲁克在队内对抗赛状况相当好，就跟以前一样充满能量」。
火箭在系列赛取得二连胜后，遭到雷霆反扑吞下二连败，如今双方战成2比2平手。在关键第5战，火箭双MVP哈登（James Harden）、卫斯布鲁克再度合体，无疑对火箭战力是一大利多。
