Who knew Thunder PG Russell Westbrook was so feisty? Well, after last night’s game against the Suns, it’s easy to see who won’t let himself be punked.
In the first half Westbrook scored 20 points, four assists and four rebounds. In the 2nd qtr, Westbrook went up for a rebound and it appears Len grabbed it first. That didn’t stop Westbrook from getting a firm grab on the ball too. The two tussled until Westbrook was thrown to the ground and that’s when the Scrappy Doo came out of him and both Westbrook & Len were both given techs but that’s not what got Westbrook ejected.
Shortly after, Westbrook scored his second technical foul after taunting the Suns bench. He was quickly ejected. This came at a terrible time considering OKC was down and have been struggling while Westbrook was injured and unable to play.
Following the ejecting, Kevin Durant being the MVP that he is, picked up the slack scoring 44 in the game, helping OKC edge out Phoenix 137-134 in overtime.
