Iman Shumpert Attempted to Confront Jusuf Nurkic in the Blazers Locker Room

According to ESPN reports, Sacramento Kings guard Iman Shumpert was stopped by security after he was attempting to enter the Portland Trail Blazers locker room.

Shumpert was clearly still upset about a screen that Jusuf Nurkic set. The play appeared to be clean, but Shumpert was visibly upset after running into Nurkic. After the game ended, Shumpert had not gotten over it and wanted to settle it with Nurkic.

Sounds like Shumpert took exception to a Nurkiu0107 screen in the first half and things spiraled from there. Evan Turner notes he went to middle school with Shumpert, said he understands where he’s coming from but doesn’t know Nurk to be a dirty player.
