Payton 'proud' of son as impressive Warriors start continues
The elder Payton, who is the first head coach at Lincoln University in Oakland, took no credit for GP2’s incredible leaping ability. At 6-foot-1, GP2 is three inches shorter than his father but has enough bounce to be one of Golden State’s primary lob threats.
“He’s just athletic, man,” GP1 said, his grin turning to laughter. “I was wondering if the mailman came around when I was out of town. Wherever athletic ability came from, I’m just happy he got it.”
