In those closing minutes in that fourth quarter that allowed you guys to get that separation that was needed um just not turn the ball over way too many turnovers but when we stop when we don’t turn the ball over we get good shots and we had a lot of offensive rebounds too

But just not turning the ball over getting stops basic things we should have been doing for you another game where you’re coming in playing some very impactful minutes just what was working so well for you for you allowed you to play the game that you

Wanted um my first goal is to guard I don’t like when people score and I’m on the floor and I feel like I could have helped it um so yeah that was my first mindset and offensively you know just playing confident free not being nervous or scared and yeah just

Hoping when you said the other day you you want to play Confident you are confident when you get in but to play in a crunch time game like this just kind of how do that feel for you to know that they’re trusting you with these minutes

In a game like this uh it was great you know that they TR be with the minutes um as for me personally it’s like I played a lot of games even in the G it’s all got the same goal try to win so you know really change to me another

Three-pointer for you just Kevin all say he’s not surprised that that’s in your game but what more can you tell us about that three-point game that you have it’s GNA be shown soon I just ain’t making them all right now but it’s coming soon for you what was it what was like

Obviously playing alongside uh CLA and sharp I think I didn’t see that a lot before just what did you learn kind of like playing alongside those two guys and trying to navigate a different position um so really we play I played before college so like it was I’m from

In familiar territory and that has been a while since I’ve done that like I was saying like navigating screens things like that you know it’s I ain’t done it in a long time but as far as playing with him um I think it opens up a lot of different opportunities for me uh

Especially like crashing the glass it’s a lot of easier crash the glass with a head of steam versus just being there already um for me personally and you know just pooping yeah what was the mood in the locker room I mean you guys haven’t it’s been a while since you guys

Been able to celebrate a win was it was there kind of like a relief for you guys to kind of you know get that get that win after losing the last six yeah we say um you know you got to celebrate the wins even though I mean it’s been a long

Season we Ain won too many but you got to celebrate the ones you do get it’s not easy to win at this level so I mean have a good time whatever we do then we got another game real soon so what’s your way of celebrating yourself just like even kill right now

How are you going to celebrate this one we got team dinner I’m going go going to have some uh good time at the team dinner eat I’m laying down I’m going to bed I I don’t really I don’t be out too much thanks thanks appreciate you
