Oklahoma City guard Chris Paul wouldn’t stop barking at Miami’s Duncan Robinson during a game in the NBA bubble, not giving him an inch as the two battled for position.
It was classic Paul, a bulldog, eventually ripping the ball away and firing it off Robinson to win the possession.
Across the country, Dan Wohl, a financial analyst at Tesla in San Francisco, watched the play and was giddy.
That Robinson, his former teammate at Division III Williams College, could be bickering on the court with a future Hall of Famer was surreal.
“He has to, and he does, convince himself that what happened with Chris Paul is no big deal because he has to convince himself that he belongs,” Wohl said.
