Kingston Flemings closed the game over CJ McCollum, with Snyder citing his rhythm and ball-pushing impact.

“Kingston gave us a lift. He was pushing the ball and he made some good things happen. … Kingston had been in the game long enough that it felt like we're throwing CJ in a tough situation, putting him in cold at that point. So, as I said, CJ is all about the team and the team winning. And, you know, that's an aberration.”

Flemings will keep putting the ball on the rim when defenses know he will pass.

“It's just when the defense knows I'm gonna pass, like, my passes aren't gonna be there. So coaches talk to me about that. Everyone's talking about that. So putting the ball on the rim, I'm gonna continue to do that.”
