The Los Angeles Clippers faced the Sacramento Kings in one of the most exciting encounters of this season recently. The Kings showed incredible heart and determination to win the game 176-175. Russell Westbrook made his much-anticipated debut for the Clippers, but his special night was not the most delightful experience of his career. On top of a heartbreaking loss, Westbrook was handed another humiliation during the post-game interview.

Kings’ De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk were interviewed after the game and Fox went all out in his response. When asked about their thoughts on the overall game, Fox lost all his filters and gave his honest thoughts about Westbrook. With an entertaining game and an equally entertaining press conference, NBA fans on Twitter erupted into a frenzy.

Fans chime in on social media after Kings star takes shots at Russell Westbrook

2017 NBA MVP Russell Westbrook almost took his team over the line on his debut. He played as a Clipper for the first time after a messy end to his time with the Los Angeles Lakers. He was constantly a target for the media and the fans while a Laker and all that hate once forced his wife to intervene.

An ESPN report recently called him a ‘vampire’ and this was met with severe criticism from Russ’ wife Nina Westbrook and the NBA world alike. Subsequently, Westbrook finally left the team and joined their rivals, the Los Angeles Clippers, after a buyout agreement with the Utah Jazz.

However, the 34-year-old didn’t have the most ideal debut with the Clippers. Although he was brilliant individually, the Kings’ performance overshadowed his debut. Moreover, De’Aaron Fox’s post-game comments added insult to injury.

During the interview, Fox said, “Is it thoughts about Westbrook or is it thoughts about us? Coz I don’t give a f**k who’s over there.” Malik Monk, who sat beside Fox, also agreed with the 2022-23 All-Star’s claim and added his insights.

Here’s what the NBA world had to say about Fox’s comments.

As the above reactions suggest, fans certainly loved what Fox had to say. The 25-year-old had a monstrous outing against the Clippers and was full of confidence which was more than evident in his post-game press conference.
