Things get heated between Russell Westbrook and Utah Jazz fans again. “I’ll f*ck you up. You and your wife,” he says.

Here’s all of the statement I can fit into one Twitter vid: pic.twitter.com/EQA3A4jaQQ
“That’s just one video. Throughout the whole game, since I’ve been here, especially here in Utah, there’s a lot of disrespectful things that’s said. I’m not going to continue to take the disrespect to my family. There’s gotta be something done. There’s got to be some consequences for those types of people.”Westbrook didn’t apologize for his comments, instead saying that he would respond the same way if given a second chance.
“Initially, I was like, ‘I’m talking with Westbrook. The guy is one of the greats.’ But he’s also classless. . . . He can threaten me all he wants. I was the one talking to him, but don’t threaten a woman. She’s 5 feet tall and 110 pounds, man. Never said a word to him. Her first NBA game ever. Welcome to the NBA.”
