In the Garden, Westbrook made a giant leap in the All-Star Game scene. While earning his first MVP, the fourth-time All-Star shot 16 of 28 from the field for 41 points in over 25 minutes.
Like many others, Westbrook tallied 0.2 win shares, but his PER (43.9) tells us that he was really on. Despite 28 shots and a sky-high usage (35.7%), his efficiency was off the charts. His play led the West to a 163-158 victory.
