Kawhi had hilarious reaction to Ballmer punching air during meeting
Kawhi Leonard and Steve Ballmer couldn't be more different. While Leonard has a reputation for being quiet and reserved, the Los Angeles Clippers owner is a loud and boisterous man who wears his emotions on his sleeve.
In an interview with Arash Markazi of the Los Angeles Times, Clippers head coach Doc Rivers recalled how Ballmer's energetic displays drew a hilarious response from Leonard.
"(Ballmer has) been phenomenal to work with. He's got more energy than anybody needs," Rivers said. "After Kawhi signed, we had this meeting and Ballmer walks in punching the air and making all these sounds and Kawhi, who doesn't say much, leans over and says, 'That man has too much energy.'"
Get yourself a hype man like Steve Ballmer. 😂
