Clippers guard Russell Westbrook got into a verbal altercation with a fan during Tuesday night’s 113–104 loss to the Nuggets in Los Angeles.
The fan, who was sitting a few rows up from the floor, was seen yelling in the direction of Westbrook while the game was in action. The Clippers guard stopped playing and walked over to fire back barbs into the stands at the fan. The altercation spilled over into a timeout, when both Westbrook and the fan continued to spew words at one another.
Multiple people tried to move Westbrook away from the unruly fan at different points, including one of the game’s officials, Clippers teammate Daniel Theis, and Nuggets players Justin Holiday and DeAndre Jordan.
