Video: Mic'd Up Robin Lopez Hilariously Roasts His Brother
David Richard-USA TODAY Sports

Robin also called his brother an actor saying he starred in 'Westside Story'.

A bit of banter between brothers isn't a novelty in the NBA, and Robin Lopez added a hilarious touch to it when he roasted his brother, Brook.

Both the Lopez brothers play in the league and Robin, who plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers was mic'd up when they played the Milwaukee Bucks and used to full effect to take a shot at his brother. The Cavaliers emerged victorious, but Robin didn't get any minutes.

And that was used to his advantage as well when he hilariously roasted Brook and even called him out for flopping. He also called his brother an actor saying he starred in 'Westside Story', much to everyone's delight. So much so that the refs couldn't help but crack up as well.

Robin Lopez's Fun Take On His Brother: "He Was Office Krupke!"

One of the instances saw the twin compare his brother to Brian d'Arcy James' Officer Krupke in 'Westside Story'. 

Brook was trying to fend off Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen under the basket and flinched while grabbing the ball and attempting a shot. This had Robin the Bucks' center out.

"That's a flop. He's an actor! I know it, he's in Westside Story! He was Officer Krupke!"

In the end, it was all in good humor, and safe to say, all's well between the two. The Cavaliers won 114-106 to improve to 22-11 in the East, while the Bucks are 22-9, and placed first. 

Cleveland has been one of the most impressive teams this season with Donovan Mitchell leading the way. He was at the forefront against Milwaukee with 36 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists. He's averaging 29.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 4.5 assists this season.

With this win, the Cavaliers have won five on the trot. They play the Toronto Raptors next, followed by a skirmish with the Brooklyn Nets.
