Euroleague: wins for Sam Van Rossom and Ismael Bako

Derrick Williams: “[Seven guys in double-digits in scoring] means that we have really a good team, from top to bottom. It doesn’t matter who starts, we have lots of guys in this team that can really play, whoever’s name is called, is ready to play as you could see tonight. I’m trying to prime myself especially in the fourth, because when it comes to winning time, at the end of the day the only motivation you need is winning, when it comes to winning you want to give all you have to the team.“
