Darius Garland talks about big night from beyond the three point line postgame after win at Detroit

Darius up by as many as 26 in this one they cut it there to seven with a minute and 13 to go what did you see during that time and how’ you guys ultimately close it out um we weren’t very good defensively those last couple minutes of

The game and uh had to lack in the last couple minutes and try to get some stops get some easy buckets and we put out a tough win you had seven threes the other night you make eight threes tonight six of which came in the second quarter

First of all how confident do you feel when you’re knocking down six threes in a quarter I feel very confident uh it feel good coming off my hand tonight uh I mean missing two big pieces of our team with d in the car house so uh has

To be super aggressive tonight talked to JB coincidentally before this game about how aggressive he wanted you to be from three something he said to you a lot this season how have you felt that being added to your game and just embracing the confidence within that yeah um I

Mean they’ve been telling me this for 5 years now so uh just to get in the Rhythm and make a couple shots and just see him go in uh my confence just keeps building so uh hopefully next game make nine and make more consecutive you just mentioned

Rhythm and for a guy that I’ve talked to a lot about Rhythm how impressive is it that Sam Merill a guy who doesn’t play for two games then comes in tonight within a minute he drains a three and then he finishes with four yeah um I mean that’s a great shooter right there

Uh Sam I mean he’s a really huge boost off the bench for us uh he comes in take charges he makes a lot of shots and uh I mean he’s a great compliment to all of us so love him Evan mile who just came over to you ties a career high with

Seven assists tonight as a point guard yourself like what is standing out about his playmaking uh I mean he’s making the right reads every time and um every possession and every time he gets the ball he’s always just looking for somebody else if you don’t have a good

Shot so uh I mean it’s hard to teach a unicorn like that so I’m happy to be on our team no Donovan Mitchell on the court tonight but he was pretty loud here on the bench how was uh he has a cheerleader out there uh I mean we was

Missing the PM PS but but uh he was really good on the for us uh he was keeping everybody engaged talking to everybody but uh glad we got put out a win for him lastly Darius when you returned from your JRE it was January 31st it was actually against the Pistons

How are you a different player right now than you were right when coming back from that um got a pretty good Rhythm right now um I mean my grandmother’s with me so it feels like I have a lot more Boo and more confidence in myself

Right now so uh I give all the thanks to my grandmother cuz she’s with right now so uh these last two games are for her and the rest of the season is too thanks so much Jerry thank you

“I feel very confident. It felt good coming off my hand tonight.”

Darius Garland was FEELING it Friday night in a wire to wire win at Detroit.
