Clashing Thunder Stars Bear Watching
The Oklahoma City Thunder are one of the NBA’s best young squads, a small-market up-and-comer that thrilled the nation last season with its run to the Western Conference finals. The team is led by a dynamic duo of 23-year-old stars, two-time league scoring champion Kevin Durant and All-NBA point guard Russell Westbrook.
And therein could lie the problem.
Durant and Westbrook appeared to engage in a heated exchange during Wednesday’s game against the Memphis Grizzlies. According to a report in the Oklahoman, the two stars began shouting at each other and had to be separated.
