Russell Westbrook’s rise in the NBA’s triple-double list and the Los Angeles Lakers’ fall in the standings banner the latest edition of Newsmakers.

Westbrook, who has formed a deadly dynamic duo with scoring machine Bradley Beal in Washington, moved into a first-place tie with legend Oscar Robertson for the most triple-doubles in the NBA history.

The Lakers, meanwhile, have fallen to seventh place in the Western Conference with a play-in matchup against Steph Curry and Golden State Warriors looming.

PBA star Kiefer Ravena, pound-for-pound king Canelo Alvarez and Formula One’s seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton also made headlines the past week.
