Russell Westbrook torched the Phoenix Suns Saturday night with his best passing game of the season, racking up 26 points, 22 assists and 11 rebounds to record his 50th career triple-double and break his own single-game franchise assist record.

Late in the fourth quarter, Westbrook made one of the most effortlessly stylish assists you'll see all season, weaving around Tyler Ulis with a Shammgod move that mystified the commentators to set up a Steven Adams dunk.
