It’s getting better on the pitch, but not only, because it’s also getting better and better off the pitch. We build a brotherly relationship. »
A “Kentucky” connection like the one between De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk at the Kings, and Tyler Herro commented on his evening performance. “It all started with the first action of the match, and then it all came together. Bam looked for situations where he had the advantage over his opponents, and we just gave him the ball in places where he could be aggressive, score or score. As for me, my shots weren’t coming in, but my teammates kept giving me the ball. I tried to create for others. You know, there is only one number that interests me in the stats sheet, and that is the score. »
