“The biggest factor was that we fought as a team. On back to back nights coming from a game in Athens each of us had to give more in terms of effort, energy and focus. Those guys were excellent all night, fighting and keeping a team like ASVEL who’s having a great season to low scoring. I’m very proud of our team effort and we’ve got to keep it going. It’s pretty cool accomplishment to reach 2,000 points. I want to thank all my teammates from my past teams, all the coaches who had the patience to guide me through this journey. You don’t do it alone, you do it with the help of teammates, and I’m very happy to reach this goal with this jersey on my chest.”
