It’s hard for me to stay quiet in front of so much stupidity, disrespect, and nonsense. I am so proud of the person he is — fair, a great teammate, with a good heart and a strong mind. I am proud of you, and our son is proud of you,” Rudy Gobert’s Girlfriend, Bonilla, said after the result of the poll.
