Russell Westbrook said he will play limited minutes in Game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.

The superstar of the Houston Rockets was dealing with a quad injury and missed the first four games of the series.

He returned in Game 5, yet it is clear he needs time to return to shape and find his rhythm.

The series is tied at 3-3. Whoever wins Game 7 will face the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals.
