Oklahoma City Thunder Kick Off Season In Oakland Tuesday

NBA's 73rd season starts Tuesday as the Oklahoma City Thunder take on Kevin Durant and his champs on national television, and not knowing whether Russell Westbrook will play.

Officials confirm Russell traveled with the team but his playing could be a game time decision. It has not been confirmed whether or not he will play.

Always subject to change and likely a much firmer update will come tomorrow after shootaround, but Russell Westbrook is listed as out against the Warriors in the game notes. Also, Steven Adams is listed as questionable with lower back stiffness.
