How did you how did you approach your your men tonight uh sorry how what how did you approach your your just your minut tonight uh man like uh everybody here always say like be ready for when you have the opportunity to be there and

To be in the court and and play so when I saw like that having like a couple minutes in the court I was like I got to I got to bring another energy to the team especially def defensively because uh I feel like we we needed more

Like this energy on defense so I was there like I got to bring that for the team like I don’t care like how many points I’m going to I’m going to do or like rebounds I don’t really care about that I just want to go there and help

The team to win and like every time that I got a couple minutes or like I’m going to be there in the court and I’m going to be doing that helping the team to win doesn’t matter what what’s been the key for you to stay ready you

Know uh like my family yeah my family is always like talking to me about all that uh it’s not it’s not easy to be in another country like uh you know but with the Warriors like with the Warriors organization they make me feel like like

A I am in a family you know so H I feel like in in the sports like you always got to be ready because your opportunity comes like you never wait you never you never like waiting for your opportunity the opportunity just come and you got to

Be ready and my family was like I think the biggest key like talking to me every day and like keep you doing your things keep you working out hard and when the opportunity comes like God’s you seen everything and you’re going to you’re going to be ready for that what is the

Hardest part for you in terms of being away from from home how do you deal with that uh like the culture is a little bit different uh especially be away from the family and you not be there in like special moments but that’s one thing like everybody in the basketball and the

All the sports pass through it so I think like it’s tough but you gotta you gotta know that that’s how gonna be what you think about how you guys played overall today uh I feel really good like I I see like that we we can be like a a really

Good team if we keeping playing that way because nobody can stop for us like I was I was saying in the other interview like we got Stephen Kirk for me is the best player in the world so when you give him like wide open shots and you f

Facilitate the game for him he going to win the games and you just got to be there on defense like working hard on defense and on offense let him let him work he G to he going to play and he going to win the game a road game today but obviously a

Lot of Warriors fans a lot of support what did it feel like to play in that atmosphere uh I was feeling like like we was playing at home to be honest because we we have a lot of fans in here and like uh it’s it’s good when when you
