Rudy Gobert Goes Off On Officials After Avoiding Nasty Elbow

Rudy Gobert was almost hit by OG Anunoby but still got ejected somehow.

Basketball is one of the fastest games in the world so sometimes, things can be a blur. The heat of the moment can get players into some compromising positions and the referees have to make sure they catch on to every single thing that goes on. Last night, the Utah Jazz and Toronto Raptors had a perfect example of this. During the Raptors win, OG Anunoby of Toronto was in transition and tangled up with Rudy Gobert of the Jazz. Seemingly out of nowhere, Anunoby threw an elbow in Gobert's direction although it didn't land.

Following the incident, Anunoby and Gobert were both ejected from the game. Gobert was extremely upset by it all and ended up complaining about it after the game. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Gobert felt as though the ref failed at protecting him. In fact, Gobert says he might take matters into his own hands next time.

“(OG Anunoby) tried to elbow me in the face. And the guy who’s getting paid to protect the players didn’t do his job," Gobert said. "We both got ejected when I didn’t do anything back, which I don’t understand. Next time I’ll do justice myself so (they) can eject me for a reason.” 

While Gobert's frustration is warranted, there is little he can actually do about the situation. Referees can't just reverse calls on a whim and no matter how much you yell at them, it's not going to make a difference.

Future & Lori Harvey Finally Go Public With Their Relationship, Twitter Savagely Reacts

The jokes are rolling in.

For well over a month now, people and publications have been speculating that Future and Lori Harvey were dating. Internet detectives have put pieces together to prove that Future and Harvey being repeatedly spotted in the same locations was no coincidence. Despite their relationship status being pretty obvious before, it can now be confirmed with certainty. It's Harvey's 23rd birthday weekend and she decided to celebrate by sharing her love for Future with the world. She posted a video of the Atlanta rapper kissing her on the cheek while they're away on vacation. 

Unsurprisingly, Twitter has found several reasons to make fun Future and Lori Harvey's relationship. Future is often viewed to be toxic (see: his endless baby mama drama and the recent meme of him sending nauseating texts), so some are arguing that Harvey could do better than him. Others are praising Harvey for being the one to reveal she is dating Future, rather than the other way around. This is being seen as a power move on her part. Harvey's extensive dating history has some believing that Future has finally met his promiscuous match. Alongside the dating rumours, there was widespread curiosity about how Lori's parents feel about her choice of man. Steve Harvey finally commented on his stepdaughter's relationship, but rather than slandering Future, he claimed ignorance regarding the whole situation. 

Here are some varied reactions to Future and Lori becoming official.
