PHOENIX — Cam Johnson understands how Chris Paul felt about his family being harassed at Sunday’s Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals in Dallas.
The Suns forward said his girlfriend was hit the back of the head and had beer spilled on her during Game 3 of last year’s NBA Finals at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.
“American Airlines Center and Dallas Mavericks security and executives have concluded the investigation into the incident involving the Paul family. Two unruly fans attempted to give unwanted hugs and have conversations with members of the Paul family on the public concourse of American Airlines Center. AAC security responded immediately once notified by the family and the fans were swiftly ejected from the game.
“It’s so wrong on so many levels,” Johnson said. “It’s just harassment, it’s all those things. I feel for him and his family and you just wish there was more you could do. Without saying too much, you wish you could kind of pause everything else that’s going on and handle the situation.” Smith said Paul’s mom told him Paul’s wife went to security and the nearby bar in the arena and asked them to stop serving the fan because the fan was intoxicated.While Paul didn’t do media interviews after Monday’s practice, Suns coach Monty Williams did and addressed the situation. Williams initially thought a fan was heckling their bench during the timeout in the fourth quarter, but he was focused on the game.
Williams called Sunday’s incident “unnecessary,” but “not indicative of fans” he’s “dealt with” in Dallas. “They’ll take the precautions necessary to make sure everybody is safe so they can enjoy the game,” Williams said. “As a player and a coach, when I’m on the road and my family is coming to see me, I am concerned at times, but not because I think somebody is going to put their hands on them. I’m just concerned about what they may hear. That’s just part of the deal. We all know that, but when you start to put your hands on people, especially women. Come on man.
