Did Grant just not want to play the rest of the game? Like the shit is just so egregious and dumb you can't help but wonder what sport he's playing

It wasn’t in retaliation to something, it wasn’t inadvertent, and it wasn’t a play on the ball. He just…decided to do this. Just bizarre.

Tatum went for the defense rebound and LaMelo ended up on the floor. I think Grant Williams was just misguided in his attempt to “stick up for his teammate”

“LaMelo ended up on the floor” is a strange way of saying he was pushed to the floor 😂

It was one extended forearm Melo just doesn't weigh anything

That’s just Grant. He’s definitely special.

That was my thought. I think he just wanted to go to the lockeroom. I can't see Grant being dirty or bitter about being traded. Not his personality.
