NBA star Russell Westbrook was embroiled in a heated exchange with a Los Angeles Lakers fan as the player was reportedly sworn at as he left the court following his team’s defeat to the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday.
The Lakers slipped to a frustrating 103-97 defeat to the Clippers, despite 25 points from Anthony Davis and 20 points - and 10 rebounds - from LeBron James. Lonnie Walker also scored 26 for the Lakers, while Paul George and John Wall led the way for the Clippers with 15 points each.
It was another difficult night for Westbrook. He scored just two points in a performance to forget, although James praised the guard’s defensive hustle.
