Dwyane Wade wasn't happy with the excuse provided from a Utah Jazz fan, one that reportedly antagonized Russell Westbrook into threatening and cussing him out and his wife during Monday night's game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Jazz. The Miami Heat guard, who is in his last season in the league, bluntly called the fan a liar after he was interviewed following the incident.

This is hardly the first time Westbrook has been involved in a serious back-and-forth with a fan, let alone players overall, who have seen fans step over the edge and take their entitled selves to astronomical levels of disrespect.
Shane Keisel, the fan in question, noted there was never a swear-word exchange with Westbrook and that he told him to “ice your knees, bro” after Westbrook claims he was set off by the fan saying “get on your knees like you used to” before the All-Star guard replied “I'll f*** you up, you and your wife.”




It's hard to fathom Westbrook, as volatile as he can be, involving the wife if she had nothing to do in the matter.
Jazz fans have been known to be one of the most loyally supportive fan bases in the league, but their fans have also gained the reputation of being some of the most hostile in the NBA.
The league will gather facts on this matter and investigate all accounts before a ruling is handed out at a later date.
