Dikembe Mutombo Jokingly Wants J.J. Watt To Pay Royalties For Finger Wag

Like Mutombo, Watt employs the “finger wag” as his go-to celebration. Prior to the game, which the Texans won 25-13, Mutombo jokingly stated he wants Watt to pony up for using the gesture. From ESPN’s Tania Ganguli:

The world desperately needs a buddy cop film starring these two. 

So was it a business meeting?

“No, we have not discussed price yet,” Mutombo said. “But we need to sit down and talk about it.”

“To know that the legacy is still going on, I think it brings so much joy to my heart,” Mutombo said. “… He’s having fun out here defensively. He’s letting the world know, ‘Listen, I’m here to play football, I’m happy, I’m doing what Mutombo used to do.’ That’s what life is about.”
