LeBron James became the latest to voice his support for Russell Westbrook after the Thunder point guard got into a verbal altercation with a fan in Utah on Monday.
Westbrook was heard using profanity in the incident with the heckler, responding to fans by saying, "I'll f--- you up. You and your wife." Westbrook said the incident started when, "a young man and his wife in the stands told [him] 'to get down on my knees like you used to." Westbrook told reporters, "To me, that’s just completely disrespectful, to me, I think it’s racial, and I think it’s inappropriate and insensitive.
