Keldon Johnson jumped to his feet to let out one of his trademark full-throated roars after he issued the winning $15,000 bid for a painting of Muhammad Ali by a young Congolese artist at the Bismack Biyombo Foundation's fundraising gala Friday night. "Keldon bids like he plays - loud and proud," the event's emcee, Spurs TV voice Jacob Tobey, said.
Johnson said he wasn't surprised that so many members of the team showed up to support Biyombo. "He's been the ultimate teammate, the ultimate leader for us in the locker room," Johnson said.
"We're brothers," Johnson said. "And this is what brothers do. Brothers show up for each other. ... We're a close-knit group and I feel like we're not afraid to show that. We just continue to show our love for each other and show how much we support each other - on and off the court. "...I had a wonderful night, and being able to give back in any way I can for Bis and his people means more than anything in the world to me."
Tom Orsborn: Keldon Johnson told me he's with Wemby when it comes to 50 wins not being enough: "He says it's not enough, it's not enough. You can't settle. When you have something special, you can't leave anything on the table. You got to go get everything that we can achieve and more."
Spurs Culture: Kevin Durant: "Man, why you guys triple teaming me?" Keldon: "You're the 6th leading scorer in NBA history. That's why we are triple teaming you." Anonymous Spur: "it's not because you're good, its because the rest of your team sucks." (Via: @JMcDonald_SAEN )

Jeff McDonald: Keldon Johnson and Stephon Castle are both in tonight in Brooklyn.
Videos also shows Pretti holding a phone during the altercation, but he is never seen brandishing the 9mm semiautomatic handgun police said he was licensed to carry. "We have a stand your ground law here, right?" Fox said after the Spurs loss to New Orleans on Sunday. "I don't know, how many of you all own guns? I own guns. We all know 'KJ' (Spurs forward Keldon Johnson) owns guns. But imagine someone breaks into your house and you shoot 'em in the back, right? Probably neutralized. Then you're like, ah, (expletive), let's empty the entire clip. ... You would at least be charged and have to go through that process. So that's a bit crazy, right? I'd be charged if I shot someone in the back, they fall. And then even if it's in my house, even if I'm protecting my property and then I decide I want to empty the entire clip. That's where you get to excessive force and all these other things."
Jared Weiss: Keldon Johnson explains that he and Victor Wembanyama shaved each other’s heads: “Last night, Vic was like, ‘Yo, let's bald our head.’ And I was like, ‘Shit, let's do it. ‘ I mean, I've been looking for a reason to do it.“
Jeff McDonald: Wemby got a haircut.

Tom Orsborn: Castle on Keldon: “That’s a constant thing for Keldon, the energy he brings. It just uplifts everybody, the crowd, the team. The other team can feel the energy in the arena when he checks in. It’s just a boost all around the court.”
Dan Weiss: Keldon Johnson told me earlier tonight that despite not winning the NBA Cup, he did go ahead and purchase the and in his words the llama is “in transit”. No name yet but he’s willing to take fan suggestions.
Plenty of discussion over the past few days centered on the cash prize for every player, and what they would do with the money their team won. "[Jaylin Williams] reminds us the exact dollar amount every single day." Thunder forward Jalen Williams said Friday, one day before OKC lost to the Spurs in a thrilling semifinal game. "Half a million dollars is a lot of money, regardless if you make what I make or whatever the case may be, you know what I mean. That's enough money to get you going and play hard." After San Antonio clinched a spot in the knockout round of the tournament with a win over the Denver Nuggets, Spurs forward Keldon Johnson said, "for $500,000, I'd play in a back-to-back-to-back. I'll run through a wall."
