During Game 2 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James had a heated interaction with former teammate Alex Caruso.

Oklahoma City defeated Los Angeles, 125-107, to take a 2-0 series lead following the game on Thursday night. It was a chippy match between these two Western Conference rivals and at one point, LeBron even got upset with Caruso.

Note that the following clip of the broadcast contains language from LeBron not suitable for work.

"Every [expletive] call. AC, [explitive] that. I don't want to hear that [expletive]," LeBron said.

Earlier in the game, LeBron was called for a charge against Caruso when his former teammate took a screen. Lakers coach JJ Redick told reporters he thinks LeBron gets the "worst whistle" from refs of any star he has ever seen.

Caruso, who won a championship alongside LeBron on the Lakers in 2020, spoke about playing against the four-time NBA Finals MVP. He had high praise for his former teammate despite the on-court interaction.

LeBron also had a heated interaction with Houston Rockets big man Alperen Şengün during the first round of the playoffs.
