NBA: Westbrook angry after fan pushers:”Totally unacceptable.”

The game between the Denver Nuggets and the Oklahoma City Thunder was first-class on the one hand, and on the other it ended with an ugly scene. This could lead to repercussions.

After Denvers Gary Harris met a wild threesome to win with the Buzzer, a nuggets fan appeared on the court right next to Russell Westbrook and shouted at him. Westbrook easily pushed him out of the way before security staff quickly took the man away.

Afterwards Westbrook was understandably annoyed:”You have to be able to protect the players,” the MVP said. But they can’t just walk into the court. The League will certainly look into it and try to find a solution. I find that totally unacceptable.”

Since Westbrook pushed the fan, which is of course a rule violation, he could face a penalty from the NBA, but in this case it is possible to expect goodwill. Of course, the fan had also committed a clear violation of the rules.

Denver won the game with 127:124, Westbrook with 20 points and 21 assists.
