Utah Jazz Fan Who Received Lifetime Ban Suing Team And Russell Westbrook

Attempts to reach the attorneys for Keisel and Huff on Monday were not successful. Attempts to reach Westbrook or his representatives on Monday also were not immediately successful.

Immediately after the incident, Westbrook told reporters that he felt like Keisel’s comments had racial connotations:

“To me, that’s just completely disrespectful. To me, I think it’s racial, and I think it’s inappropriate.

I just think that there’s gotta be something done, there’s gotta be some consequences for those type of people that come to the game just to say and do whatever they want to say.

I don’t think it’s fair to the players, not just to me but I don’t think it’s fair to the players.”
