NBA Records, Russell Westbrook, MSU Men's Basketball, Tom Izzo, DeShaun Tate, Current Sports Production Assistants and Reflection Friday.

On today's "Current Spors with Al Martin" it's cold outside, but things start to warm up a little bit when talking about Russell Westbrook--the Oklahoma City Thunder point guard who is averaging the first triple-double since Oscar Robertson. Al and engineer Isaac Constans try to weigh the magnitude of his accomplishment in a historical context. Then, the conversation jumps on over to MSU men's basketball, and Al enlists some help. Hear quotes from Tom Izzo's most recent latest media availability before CBS Radio Atlanta producer and host DeShaun Tate scans the college basketball landscape. Finally, it's time to say goodbye to the last batch of Current Sports PA's. A very big thank you to Zachary Swiecicki, Zach Barnes and Griffin Wasik.
