feel around

Russell pointed to Redick’s organization over the summer as a reason why things have a “new” feel around the Lakers’ facility, even if Russell knows he’s probably bound for another round of Trade Machine rumors because of his $18.7 million contract that expires after this season.

He has also learnt to let go of any protectiveness he might feel around the story.

I reach behind me and feel around for the salt and pepper shakers.

I stick my arms out and feel around, but my hands never find the tunnel walls.

Then I feel around under the sink.
