Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on never letting his mental affect his play:
“I think I just love competition. I love adversity. I love when things don't go my way. It just gives me an opportunity to grow and get better. It's easy to be super engaged when you're making every shot and you're up 20. But when you're in the thick of things and things aren't going your way, you really find out about yourself. Those are the moments and the games where I learn the most. So as bad as it may seem, I relish those moments, I appreciate those moments and I use them for good.”

Nick Jackson on Karson Sharar: "You can make the argument right now that in our linebacker room — we've had this discussion a couple of times — that he might be the most talented dude in our room right now."
We've got history in Clarion tonight.

I just am so bothered by this kind of perspective. Was Pete Maravich great? Unequivocally yes, right? Or by this low hanging fruit logic is he not because he didn’t win a title?
Caitlin Clark is a stone cold legend of college basketball, full stop period the end.
