This led to a verbal altercation between the two, during which teammates and coaches stepped in.

Antetokounmpo talked about the play that led to his altercation with Chris Paul on the court during and after the Milwaukee Bucks’ game against the San Antonio Spurs.

He said, “If you try me, you’re going to get that different side of me,”

“At the end of the day, I think we’re all men, we all respect one another. If words cross the line, then there’s gotta be consequences.

“I really don’t say much, I try to play the game the right way, but enough is enough.

“If I feel like you’re putting my livelihood and my career and my body in jeopardy, enough’s enough brother.

“I have a family to feed. And what makes you laugh can also make you cry sometimes.”

Antetokounmpo returns to action when the Bucks take on the Oklahoma City Thunder in a rematch of the NBA Cup final.
