Russell Westbrook set for season debutBy CLIFF BRUNT

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Russell Westbrook will make his season debut Sunday against the Sacramento Kings.

The Oklahoma City Thunder star missed the preseason after having a procedure to deal with inflammation in his right knee. He missed the regular-season opener Tuesday night at Golden State and the next game Friday night at the Los Angeles Clippers, both losses.

Westbrook will start and will play without a restriction on playing time. Dennis Schroder mill move to a reserve role.

Westbrook was the NBA MVP in 2016-17. He averaged a triple-double last season for a second straight season, posting 25.4 points, a league-leading 10.3 assists and 10.1 rebounds per game.
