Russell Westbrook Denies Trolling Kevin Durant With Pre Game Outfit

by HHL Editors

Russell Westbrook showed up last night to OKC's much anticipated match up with Kevin Durant and the Golden State Warriors dressed as a photographer.

Why?

Well, a lot of folks concluded he was trolling KD, who is an amateur photographer.

Given Westbrook's history of taking the subtlest of shots at his former teammate, it seemed a good theory

However, Westbrook denied that was his intention in his post game interview.

As for the game ... KD outscored Westbrook 39-20 as the Warriors handed OKC their first loss of the year.

So if Westbrook was trolling, it didn't work.

Update: Durant responded to Westbrook's outfit in an interview with ESPN:

I don’t care about what nobody wear to the game. Who gives a shit? I don’t care what he wore," KD said.
