The latest Clippers recruit, Russell Westbrook, made headlines on Friday night when he ejected a couple of Kings fans from the Golden 1 Center. This comes after the veteran player learned a few tricks from his former teammate, LeBron James, including how to deal with unruly fans.
What did those fans say to Westbrook?
Although it remains unclear what the two fans said to tick off Westbrook, it was enough to get them escorted out of the building. The emotional player has had run-ins with fans in the past, and this latest incident was no exception. However, this time, Westbrook made sure to make an example out of the two Kings supporters.

Westbrook’s fiery and emotional personality has remained constant, leading to some off-court drama, including many altercations with fans. Westbrook has a history of going at it with opposing supporters, and this latest incident shows that he’s still struggling to control his emotions. Nevertheless, he’s been working hard on his game.
When did Russell Westbrook finally get his first win?
Despite the off-court drama, Westbrook finally logged his first win as a Clipper on Sunday, beating the Ja Morant-less Memphis Grizzlies. The team had struggled in their previous five games since signing Westbrook, but they were able to turn things around with the help of their newest addition.
With the Clippers back in action on Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors, fans will be eagerly watching to see how Westbrook performs on the court. But one thing’s for sure – his feisty personality and no-nonsense attitude will continue to make him a fan favorite, even if it means having to eject a few rowdy spectators along the way.
