Russell Westbrook’s wife launches lengthy diatribe at Stephen A. Smith: ‘Leave us alone already’

Washington Wizards superstar Russell Westbrook is known for his tenacious behavior on the court.

The 2017 MVP’s wife, Nina Earl, showed her bellicose side by firing a sharp diatribe at ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith for disrespecting her husband.

On Monday, Westbrook collected an incredible triple-double of 35 points, 21 assists and 14 rebounds in a win over the Washington Wizards.

Although the guard showcased his superstar abilities, he didn’t seem to impress Smith. Instead, the TV personality took the time on Tuesday to berate Westbrook for not being able to convert the numbers into winning.

After the Wizards’ loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday night, Westbrook took his turn at decimating Smith.

Clearly, it doesn’t appear Westbrook’s family is a fan of Smith.

The nine-time All-Star is in his first season in Washington. He’s averaging 21.8 points, 10.6 assists and 10.3 rebounds per game this season.

However, the Wizards have a terrible 17-29 record. They are the No. 12 seed in the Eastern Conference.
