Reporter: “I think Giannis starts with 22 of your guys’ first 24 in the first half, 11 points in overtime, blocks. It’s just kinda the full experience, what’d you see from him tonight to kinda will you guys to that win?”
Jackson: “I think he’s the best in the league. He’s our leader both on and off the court. When you have a strong performance from a guy like that on your team, it inspires the rest of the group to go out there and give it their all.”
