The No.31 pick of the 2018 NBA Draft spoke to the media after the game:

“It feels good. We wanted to get the first win at home in the EuroLeague. We knew we are playing a good team; obviously, we came out ready to play. We needed to adjust to some little stuff on defense, but we can see offensively that we get what we need when we bring energy on defensive end. We have good chemistry. All the guys know their roles. We are playing the right way. We are unselfish, we have a good group of guys, and the coaching staff is doing a great job.”
