Devin Booker and Russell Westbrook stood next to each other, bent over at the waist, hands on their hips.
Oklahoma City was about to secure its 124-116 victory over the Suns on Friday at Talking Stick Resort Arena, ending what had been a spectacular duel between the two players.
Westbrook finished with 43 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists. Booker had 39 points, six rebounds and eight assists, in the process becoming the third-youngest player in NBA history to score 4,000 points.
They made big shot after big shot and now, the game decided, they shared a few words.
