A decade in the NBA, the world has learned Russell Westbrook is one of the most-intense players, in the league. The world has also learned how determined Westbrook is. When Kevin Durant left, people expected the Thunder to fall off, but Russ kept them contending.
Russell Westbrook, since then, has a new team built around a new core. Over the summer, the Thunder pulled off key trades, bringing in both Paul George and Carmelo Anthony. Even with this talented trio, the Thunder have strongly underperformed.
Last night, the Thunder were on the ropes, and Paul George ended up bailing them out with a clutch game-typing three. Unfortunately, on the other end, Gary Harris was clutcher (LOL), and sealed the Nuggets’ win. After the game, an apparent Nuggets fan confronted Westbrook, leading to him shoving the fan.
This fan got a little too hyped in front of Russ 😳 pic.twitter.com/38kggJ5AIq
