I didn't play my best in the first half but I got going in the second.
I didn't have my best game. I have a lot of room for improvement. It was a decent effort. Not too bad. It was a lot of new adjustments to make. I didn't play my best in the first half but I got going in the second.
I caught up with a lot of family. I didn't do much in Croatia. Then I went back to Australia and tried to get back on the weights. It wasn't a circus like it was here before the draft.
I'd rather have this win and not score much. Personal accolades at this time of the year don't really matter.
I'd set good screens, get him open, and that's how I would get open. We'd be tough. Hopefully, they take me. I'd be an asset for them.
I'm excited just to play, and excited to be in the national spotlight.
I'm definitely honoured to be the No. 1 ticket-holder. I've followed the league since I was a kid and I've got some close friends playing in the NBL.
I'm definitely going to be coming into sport. It will be in Australia. Basketball will hopefully be the priority,
I'm just trying to play hard. I'm just proving a point to myself that I can play in this league.
I'm just happy to be a part of the weekend. To be an All-Star is something very special, and that will take a couple years. It might not happen next year, it might happen the year after ? but it's definitely a goal I have in my sights.
