Last night, Oklahoma City Thunder’s Russell Westbrook made headlines in their win over the Los Angeles Lakers. Russ became the first player in history to start the season with 100 points, 30 rebounds and 30 assists in his first three games, leading his team to a 3-0 start. Metta World Peace also made news this weekend, and not for this three minutes of play on Sunday night.
World Peace and the Lakers stayed at Oklahoma City’s Skirvin Hotel this past weekend, a building that is said to be haunted. While some players, including Lou Williams and Larry Nance, Jr., opted to stay elsewhere, many players weren’t as spooked out, even after encountering the supernatural.
“The ghosts were all over me. I just accepted it,” said Lakers forward Metta World Peace to the OC Ringer. “They touched me all over the place. I’m taking one of the ghosts to court for touching me in the wrong places.” World Peace insisted he was serious before explaining why he didn’t stay in a different hotel. “I was watching a good movie and I was tired. I didn’t want to move.” The movie he was watching was Money Monster.
