Nick Kyrgios admits 'throwing' tennis matches because his basketball team lost
Tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios had admitted to throwing tennis matches due to being "in a pretty bad mood" if his favourite basketball team has lost.The Aussie sensation, 27, is a known lover of the Boston Celtics, who lost the NBA Finals Series 4-2 to the Golden State Warriors. Kyrgios was back on court for his second-round Wimbledon match against 26th seed Filip Krajinovic on Thursday (June 30), defeating the Serbian in straight sets.In an unnaturally calm nature, Kyrgios - banned from centre court for spitting at a fan in his first-round contest - despatched Krajinovic 6-2, 6-3, 6-1 to set up a third-round clash with Stefanos Tsitsipas.
