Washington played 41 minutes and was focused for nearly all of them as a floor-stretching weapon.
“For him to play 41 minutes tonight and I have a review of the film but I would say 39 of them were like really intentional, focused... He's a weapon because he can stretch the defense.”
De Larrea likes the end-of-game duo with Sasser because Sasser makes threes and eases pressure.
“I think we do a good duel at the end. He can reduce the pressure. He can make a lot of baskets. He's spraying the court. He can shot. He's making a lot of threes. So for me, it's very good to have these kind of teammates to pass to them and be sure that they're making shots.”
Marshall started and ran the offense as its initiator for a second straight night.
“Naji Marshall doing it all for the second straight night, this time as a starter playing the offense-initiator role.”
Marshall played point guard and helped settle the team without its pure creators.
“Naji was at the point guard position. I think they did a great job of just settling us in. Great learning lesson for us down the stretch when we don't have our pure creators out there.”
