Lou Williams Claims He Went to the Strip Club After Leaving the NBA’s Bubble to Pick Up Dinner

Let me start by saying I love everything about this story.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams was at a strip club on Thursday night with rapper Jack Harlow.  after leaving the NBA's Disney Bubble.  Harlow shared a picture of the two, deleted it when people started to notice, then claimed it was an old picture.

Williams, realizing he was caught, admitted that he went to a strip club after attending a wake for his grandfather.  But he says it wasn't to party, is was just to pick up dinner from his favorite restaurant.

No, I'm not kidding.

Sources told ESPN that Williams has been interviewed by NBA security about his whereabouts while he was away from campus, and told them he did go to the Magic City gentleman’s club for a short time on Thursday night

However, as @ZachLowe_NBA recently noted, that re-quarantining time could be extended up to 10 days if the league's outside infectious disease specialists recommends it.

This is fucking amazing.  As I said, I love everything about this story.  It's the old "I go to the strip club for the food" excuse.

Williams might be my new favorite basketball player after this fiasco.
