Russell Westbrook upgraded to questionable for Rockets' Game 5

Houston star has not yet played in this playoffs.

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook’s status for Wednesday’s pivotal Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder was upgraded to questionable.

Westbrook has not played in the series against his former team due to a strained right quadriceps. He was listed as out in the league’s 11 a.m. official injury report but was upgraded early Wednesday afternoon.

Sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski that a decision would be made about Westbrook’s availability after he tests his quadriceps on the court before Game 5.
