The Los Angeles Lakers were beaten by the Los Angeles Clippers by six points. Although Lonnie Walker, Anthony Davis, and LeBron James all played exceptionally well, the Lakers were unable to secure the victory. Many fingers were pointed at Westbrook, who only had two points, three rebounds, and four assists in 27 minutes.
A toxic fan switched up his statement as Russell Westbrook confronted him
The Lakers players were returning to the dressing room after the game between the Lakers and the Clippers. As Russell Westbrook passed by, a fan from the stands said, “Westbrook you suck a*s.” In no time, Westbrook came out to confront the fan and said, “What’d you say?” The fan quickly switched up his statement after being confronted by the 6″2′ Lakers guard.

Subsequently, NBA fans showed their support for Westbrook on Twitter. One of the fans said, “Even if he is garbage at ball he still a built a*s 6’3” athlete and can probably whoop the living sh*t out of you so I understand. Not like he has anything left to lose he probably will fight you for that.”
