Russell Westbrook was PISSED at the Golden State Warriors after Wednesday night's game -- vowing revenge on Zaza and apparently telling teammates to stay away from "bitch ass" Kevin Durant.

The game wasn't exactly the friendliest -- with Zaza Pachulia knocking Westbrook to the ground at one point and standing over him in a menacing way.

After the game, Russell went off to reporters saying, "I'm gonna get his ass back. Straight up."

He added, "I don't know when it's gonna be. But I don't play that game."

There's more ... now video has surfaced from the moments the game ended appearing to show Russell telling teammates to not talk to a certain "bitch ass."

According to multiple reports, the "bitch ass" in question is KD, though it's impossible to tell from the clip alone.

Interesting note ... Westbrook says he and Durant are NOT on speaking terms.

Barry Switzer tells TMZ Sports teams would be foolish to pass on "1st round talent" like Joe Mixon -- and compares the situation to Randy Moss.

The Oklahoma legend (and hardcore Trump fan) is out in D.C. for the inauguration due to his relationship with the guy for the past 20 years.

But when we brought up Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon -- who was seen on video brutalizing a female student in 2014 -- Switzer passionately defended him.

"Joe Mixon is a great kid," Switzer said ... "I know the kid. I've spent some time with him."

Switzer says he believes Mixon has already "paid his price" for the incident and deserves a chance to move on with his life.

He also reminds NFL teams that he was a BIG Randy Moss fan before the 1998 Draft ... when teams were shying away from the WR due to previous issues with drugs and violence.

NFL commish Roger Goodell tells TMZ Sports ... the NFL is officially looking into the Antonio Brown locker room video incident.

Goodell was leaving a media event for the Los Angeles Chargers when he decided to mingle with the fans ... signing autographs, posing for selfies and even talking a little football.

At one point, Roger asked the crowd who they liked in the Super Bowl ... one fan said, "Not the Patriots!" Someone added, "Cheaters!"

The guy who kicked BJ Penn's ass this weekend ain't satisfied with potentially putting a UFC legend out to pasture ... he wants to be champion.

Yair Rodrioguez -- who dominated Penn at UFC Fight Night 103 -- joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs Wednesday night on FS1) to break down his fight with BJ ... and talk about his future in the UFC.

So, the big question is, who does Yair wanna square off against next in the Octagon?

Here it is ... the moment Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez found out he was voted into Cooperstown -- and it's emotional.

Rodriguez gave a victory fist pump when the MLB official broke the news ... his family was right by his side to share the moment.

Pudge was a 14-time MLB All-Star and was the A.L. MVP in 1999. He's also regarded as one of the greatest catchers of all time.

Along with Pudge, Jeff Bagwell and Tim Raines were also voted in.

He ain't got practice this week ... so Tony Romo got on a plane and flew out to Washington D.C. -- where he was spotted hanging out at the Trump International Hotel.

The Dallas Cowboys QB has been praised by Trump in the past -- back in 2015, Donald called him a "great guy" and said he knows him personally.

We don't know if Romo's specifically there for the inauguration ... but it seems like a good bet at this point. Especially since he was also spotted out in a fancy party suit.

Future and Ciara are no longer at war over custody of their 2-year-old baby Future ... we've learned the case is officially settled.

Sources close to the exes tell TMZ ... they've agreed to joint custody, however, baby Future will be with Ciara most of the time.

Future is frequently on the road, but when he's back in the ATL he'll have reasonable access to his son.

Our sources say both Future and Ciara want to close this chapter and move on with their lives.

The custody case has been dismissed.

Fear not, Packers fans ... the Rodgers Family soap opera playing out in the media will have NO EFFECT on your quarterback ... so says Aaron's former longtime teammate and current pal James Jones.

The wide receiver tells TMZ Sports he just spoke with Aaron and the guy seems as laser-focused as ever. Plus, James says Rodgers has a ton of experience blocking out off-the-field drama.

Of course, the new storyline comes courtesy of Aaron's father who gave an interview to the NY Times ... discussing the family's fractured relationship with the QB.

Jones says Aaron is "in the zone" right now -- the last time he saw Aaron this focused, they won the Super Bowl.

"He's in that Michael Jordan mode."

One of Egypt's most famous soccer players EVER has been put on the country's terror watch and no-fly list over allegations he contributed money to the Muslim Brotherhood.

The player is Mohamed Aboutrika -- who was an absolute STUD before retiring in 2013. In fact, he was named African Footballer of the Year FOUR TIMES!

But now, Egypt is putting the screws to Mohamed -- after officials say he helped finance the Brotherhood.

FYI, Egypt has designated the Muslim Brotherhood a terror organization. American politicians have introduced legislation to deem it one in the U.S. as well.

It's gonna be a looong off-season for Raiders star lineman Donald Penn ... his reality star baby mama just went FULL 2PAC in an angry video blasting him for "trying to play me like a stupid ass bitch."

Backstory ... former "Bad Girls Club" star Camilla Poindexter gave birth to Donald's daughter last year while he was still married to his current wife, Dominique Penn.

Dominique had dissed Camilla as a "hood rat" and a "ho" who was just trying to get "hush money" from the NFL star. She filed for divorce from Donald in November.

Now, Camilla is firing back at Donald ... claiming he's treating her like a gold digger and not like the mother of his child. She also claims he isn't spending time with the kid.

There's only one way the Patriots can beat the Steelers this weekend ... CHEAT ... that's according to Cedric the Entertainer who says the Steelers got it in the bag, unless Brady dips into his bag of tricks.

Cedric is a huge Steelers fan so when we got him out in L.A. we had to gauge how confident he is going into this weekend's AFC Championship game.

Answer? VERY CONFIDENT ... in a win, while he was seemingly less confident that the Steelers wouldn't be up to their old shenanigans (deflating balls, taping practices, you know the gags).

He also talked to us about Antonio Brown's little locker room mishap, telling our camera guy he has full confidence Coach Mike Tomlin will get Brown in line.

This kid is absolutely ridiculous.

LeBron James Jr. -- 12 years old -- has a brand new highlight reel ... and we guarantee it'll make you say, "DAMN" at least 3 times.

In the new footage, Bronny puts on a clinic -- passing, handles, defense and ridiculous step-back jumpers.

He even pulled off the water bottle challenge at the end.

Bronny's dad has already said the kid's being recruited by major colleges ... he's still got 6 years to decide!

Enjoy the clip.

Two cities are gonna be real upset ... 'cause TV super boss Les Moonves -- the guy who runs CBS -- is telling TMZ Sports which two teams are the best Super Bowl matchup for TV ratings.

We got Moonves in L.A. with wife Julie Chen when we asked him which two teams mean the biggest bucks for the network broadcasting the game this year (it's FOX).

It's tough ... GB has a red-hot Aaron Rodgers, ATL has the best offense in the league, New England has this pretty boy QB people like ... and the Steelers give you unprecedented locker room access.

Gabrielle Union made it rain all over Dwyane Wade Tuesday night -- when she threw him a surprise 35th birthday party complete with money that had his face on it!!

The party was sick -- catered by Popeyes Chicken (delicious) and included live performances from Twista and Do Or Die (some of D-Wade's favorite rappers).

The only downside ... the party went down after Wade and the Bulls lost to the Mavericks earlier in the evening.

Conor McGregor is going balls out to promote the Pegasus World Cup horse race ... well, ALMOST balls out.

The UFC superstar stripped down to his nude-colored skivvies for a new spot to promote the January 28th race for a comedic bit with Jon Lovitz.

Just glad Conor didn't hurt himself ... he's got a big boxing match to prep for.

Johnny Manziel says he's focused on football again -- telling TMZ Sports he's training 5 to 6 days a week and sources say he's "dead serious" about a comeback.
