Russell Westbrook retires from the NBA, ending his run as the league’s all-time triple-double leader. The move closes a prominent chapter of his career, during which he held the record for the most triple-doubles.

Both sources note that Nikola Jokić is near Westbrook’s career triple-double total and is positioned to surpass him in the coming seasons. The coverage frames Westbrook’s retirement in the broader context of shifting statistical milestones, highlighting that the triple-double record he leaves behind is within reach for at least one active player. While the articles focus on Westbrook’s achievement and retirement, they also point to the competitive environment in which record chasing continues, with Jokić emerging as the principal candidate to claim the top spot.
