Josh Hart:
"Everybody wants to be the guy that scores the most, that puts the ball in the basket and that's not everybody's path. That wasn't my path and sometimes that's a tough pill to swallow but when you embrace that when you're a star in your role and you take pride in doing the little things that breeds winning basketball. For me as embraced as I was in this city wearing this jersey that sacrifice was easy. Some days it was tough don't get me wrong but you sacrifice for moments like this"

🚨🇭🇹 “WE DESERVE ANSWERS” — HAITI CAPTAIN JOHNNY PLACIDE QUESTIONS OFFICIATING AFTER SCOTLAND DEFEAT
🗣️ Johnny Placide:
“This is not about making excuses. Scotland played their game and got the result, and we respect them for that. But at the same time, we cannot ignore what happened on the pitch.”
“There were two moments that, from where we stood, looked like clear penalties. We waited for VAR to intervene, we waited for explanations, but nothing came. As players, we dedicate our lives to this competition, so naturally we want clarity.”
“All we are asking for is transparency. If those incidents were not penalties, then tell us why. Show us the reasoning. Let the fans understand the decision-making process. Football is the biggest sport in the world and accountability should be part of it.”
💔 “The dressing room was silent after the final whistle. Many players felt heartbroken because we believed we had done enough to get something from the match. Moments like these can change games, especially at a World Cup where every point matters.”
🇭🇹 “Haiti may not be one of the traditional giants of world football, but our players, our supporters and our nation deserve the same respect as everyone else. We are proud to represent our country and we simply want fairness.”
The comments have sparked widespread debate among supporters, with many Haiti fans demanding greater transparency from officials following the controversial defeat to Scotlan.
Iman Shumpert on Jalen Brunson:
“For all the small guard talk we did, we always got to revisit once we say some bullsh*t. Small guards can win if they do it the right way. We will all take it back…. This is for Allen Iverson. Damian Lilliard should be happy to see this. Now he understands maybe if I do these things and sacrifice these things, I can win too.”

Dear Danhausen,
The U.S. Men’s National Team hasn’t won the World Cup before. I think it’s time to whip up a special curse. We can get you the human money ⚽️🏆
Sincerely,

I can’t be any happier that the first Filipino to win an NBA Championship is actually someone who suited up for Gilas Pilipinas in the world stage
You deserve to have that distinction of being the first Filipino to win the NBA Championship
Mabuhay ka, Jordan Clarkson 🫡🇵🇭
