Bertans fires back at Fournier's tweet about players sitting out

Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier gave his opinion Monday about players deciding to opt out of the NBA's Florida bubble, and it wasn't positive.

"If you think it's OK to sit and watch your teammates play while you're perfectly healthy (it) says a lot about you," Fournier tweeted.

On Tuesday, one of the players who has opted out so far, Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans, responded as if Fournier was subtweeting him.

Bertans' decision is a blow to the Wizards on the court. Washington owns the worst record in the NBA's returning 22-team field, and the Latvian sharpshooter was second on the squad in scoring this season.
