Spurs Rookie Jeremy Sochan Backtracks on Trolling Russell Westbrook With ‘Bricks’ Answer

Russell Westbrook has become the butt of many jokes over the last few years.

Spurs rookie Jeremy Sochan is just the latest guy to poke fun at the Los Angeles Lakers star. Sochan joked about Russell Westbrook getting a lot of “bricks” during a game of heads up with teammate Malaki Branham. Sochan later apologized for the comment, saying that it was a “heat of the moment” answer.

“Russell Westbrook get ’em a lot,” Branham told Sochan, looking for the answer, “triple-doubles.”

Instead, Sochan quickly answered, “bricks.”

“It’s banter, I was not intending on being disrespectful heat of the moment, I was playing a game baby,” the first-year player wrote.

In another tweet, he shared a photo of himself wearing a Westbrook jersey and his dog: “Been one idol since I started watching the NBA and my dog is called Russell.”

Sochan was drafted by the Spurs ninth overall  in the 2022 NBA Draft. He played one season with Baylor where he earned the Big 12 Sixth Man Award.

Crazy the amount of disrespect Russell Westbrook receives.
