Russell Westbrook and Rajon Rondo do not have exactly the best relationship. Both players have been behaving really badly since 2020, after the then Houston Rockets player insulted his Los Angeles Lakers pair in the Orlando Bubble. Now, with different uniforms, the story remains unchanged.
The Washington Wizards faced the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night in the NBA, a duel that promised from the names. However, the most attractive part of the game was the two guards who starred in a new conflict.
In the first instance, both Rondo and Westbrook began to insult each other, so they each earned a technical foul. However, the worst came later: the Wizards guard pushed the Hawks’ guard, causing a second technique and expulsion. That was not all: Rajon Rondo celebrated it as if he had won a fight and the Twitter world kept humiliating Russell.
