adrian best defenders good inside rest
It's a good possibility we won't have Adrian the rest of the season. It hurts, obviously, because in my estimation he's one of our best defenders and he's an inside presence.

The (Seton Hall) guy was coming off his screen and his knee hit JR's (leg). It must've hit it in the right spot.

I'm optimistic. All the tests have been done and Anthony is progressing. We think he'll play.

It was monumental if you want to call it that. It was something I think our kids wanted and a lot of people are going to say they're playing for me. No, they're playing for themselves.
