Charlotte Hornets' big man Frank Kaminsky is not making any friends in Chicago at the moment.
The 23-year-old center is about to enter his second year in the league, after averaging 7.5 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 0.5 blocks in just over 21.1 minutes per game during the 2015-2016 season. He is also already known as one of the most unique personalities in the league.
Kaminsky grew up in a suburb of Chicago as a White Sox's fan, which explains his recent shot at the Chicago Cubs. Referring to ‘The Steve Bartman Incident’ in which a fan named Steve Bartman disrupted play and sparked a collapse in the Cubs’ 2003 playoff series, Kaminsky sported Bartman’s name on his jersey while in The Windy City recently.
Kaminsky had the Bartman jersey made yesterday and wore it on a Wrigley rooftop last night. "Not too many people were happy."

It's safe to say that the Cubs did not take too kindly to Kaminsky's choice of attire and the barbed discussion continued from there:

With the final blow, the Cubs won the battle with a reference to Kaminsky's NCAA Championship Game loss to Duke with the Wisconsin Badgers:
