It is almost a ritual for the rookie to pay for the small stuff in a new team. From buying fast food at the airport or taking care of the tips, a new player does it all. Former Carolina Superstar Brice Johnson experienced something similar. The ‘Monster’ refreshes his memory on how he had to pay a huge sum of money as a rookie in the LA Clippers. The incident is from when some members of the team went for dinner at Nobu. What’s more, the players who asked him to pay were Chris Paul and Blake Griffin.

Let us see how Chris Paul and Blake Griffin bullied the Monster.

Chris Paul and Blake Griffin ask Brice to pay for dinner

The LA Clippers was the first team for Brice Johnson as a rookie in the NBA after his NCAA days. He was the first-round pick in the NBA draft back in 2016. Recently, Brice was invited to the Better Blue podcast.

Here, he takes the hosts and former blues back to those days. The host asked Brice about what going to LA with superstars like Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, JJ, and Doc Rivers was like. Brice said that it was different for him as he was from a small town and now there were stars all around him.
