Toumani Camara Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 91, Minnesota Timberwolves 128

You mainly about getting back into the starting lineup um chance said that you’ve sort of worked your way back into that position what you think what you think you had to do to get back there I think just keep watching film getting better try to understand my role U where

I can attack where I can be uh having a a big impact on the game and I think it’s just yeah I think that’s where I am this year on just being able to to be a next play guy be able to to create situation for others um and make my open

Shots and defensively be be a threat and know try they try to put uh the best play on the other team or other players on the other team in bad situation so I think that’s just something I’m starting to embrace and and just keep keep going on that you

Know how did he explain to you that you need needed to improve like what did he say you needed to do I mean it’s a whole new scenario especially when you when you come in um and you have no idea what the NBA is like um stuff like that so

It’s like just being able to adjust I knew it was going to take time um and yeah just keep keep learning and Trust the process I think that’s that’s why he was really trying toh help me with that and then just put me in a situation

Where I can learn and get better and um I think starting early made me learn so much and then coming off the bench made me learn so much more so I think um no matter what my situation is I think I I’ll be able to have an impact on the game just

Because I I care about the game you know what I mean so it’s just yeah I just going to play hard as as hard as I can every time I step on the floor to you’re a little over halfway through your first season what’s your biggest takeaway so

Far at this point it’s a very long season that was probably my my biggest Takeaway on 82 games you don’t really realize how long it is I think it’s just how much how much you got to take care of your body um how much you got to take

Care of your health mental health also and um yeah I think I think this break going going to help us as a team be able to take a little bit of time off the game and um yeah just rebuild and um yeah that’s probably my biggest takeways mentioned that earlier tonight he said

That you know a lot of these guys play 30 something games in college has it impacted you have you you ever wake up and go oh my God we have another game I mean it’s it’s it’s hard because we love the game of basketball so much so

You you hate having those stops but it’s it’s also very draining on your body and on on your mental health and stuff like that so uh just being able to continue and and Trust the mission I think the most important for me is trying to keep on finding that happiness on the court

And try to keep on finding ways and not really worry about anything at the end of the day it’s a game um even though we get we get paid a lot of money and a lot of fans come in to watch us I think it’s

It’s a game at the end of the day so trying to enjoy yourself as much as you can time you step on the floor I think that’s that’s why I trying to have that’s the mindset I’m trying to have right now y
