Welcome to Portland thank you brother how’ you uh feel about your debut with the blers uh definitely felt good um you know just trying to find places to impact the game um you know trying to get guys in their spots um just you know trying to find a way man
Just you know it’s new new team here just trying to find what we’re doing uh definitely trying to figure it out couple plays there I didn’t know where I was at or what I was doing so definitely just trying to get with coaches make
Sure that I’m up to speed um but it was great man playing with these a bunch of young guys on the team so it’s fun it’s great just got to come up with the win has chy told you much about what your role is going to be the rest of the
Season or is it just kind of you get here there’s so many guys out they just kind of throw you out like you kind of um definitely the circumstance with a bunch of guys being out is different than as if everyone was here but um you know just them being very transparent
With me um you know they’re welcoming me with open arms definitely telling me be aggressive take advantage of the opportunity that I have so um for now it’s that but I’m just definitely looking forward to getting all the guys back we have a lot of young Talent
That’s out so um just waiting for that but um definitely was a great night for fans trying to get to know who you are how would you describe your game um just trying to have a feel like I have a feel for the game I’m just being able to try
And make plays wherever that is I think that’s a big part of my game and I’m just trying to get guys in their spots man I’m not really trying to do too much I just want to try and help impact winning whatever that is um I feel like
I came from organization where that was big so just kind of try and impact that try and put that into place here but definitely just trying to impact winning whatever that is or what whatever that looks like um I feel like if we lose games that would look the same night and
Night out but you know winning games looks different every night it might be JG it might be da might be you know scoot so whoever it is that night would be so you just got to maintain the things that we do that make us lose and know continue to do the great things
That help us win got a nice moment with the Don in the foul three-point play to give give you guys the lead did you feel the energy after that yeah man definitely um crowd is great I definitely love the fan base here played here before so know know how engaged
They are and how they support the the the chill Blazer so definitely excited to you know play in front of the Trailblazers fans and you know it’s great tonight got a little feel of that hopefully we could come out to win for them next time how tough is it to learn
At offense on the fly like that ah man um it’s my third team in the in the league my third year um I would say it’s just you just got to be able to adapt man um you know that’s the business side of things you got to you’ll be moved
