SALT LAKE CITY — On his way out of the Beehive State — and of the NBA playoffs — Russell Westbrook took a parting shot.
The 2017 NBA MVP was livid about some things Utah Jazz fans allegedly say to him.
Asked about two confrontations he had with fans on the way to the tunnel Friday night — for the halftime break and then for the summer vacation after the Jazz eliminated the Thunder, 4-2 — Westbrook made it clear that he doesn't appreciate how he's treated by some Utah fans at Vivint Arena.
Westbrook, who scored 46 points in OKC's 96-91 loss to Utah, claimed Jazz fans go too far while trash-talking him from the stands.
