After the game Coach Wes Unseld Jr. Jordan Poole and Tyus Jones spoke to the media. Below are a few notable quotes from the postgame conference.

Coach Wes Unseld Jr.

"We were down 17 with about 6:20 to play, cut it to two possession game with two minutes left. So we gave ourselves a chance. I'm proud of the fight. It's one of those nights where you can easily just say you know what, we don't have it. We play tomorrow. And give in so they didn't let go of the rope which is... that's important. They keep pushing and fighting. Yeah, we gave ourselves a chance there."

"Bilal, even though his stat line wasn't gaudy, I thought that he really impacted the game when he was in there."

Jordan Poole

"It's always helpful whenever we can get the crowd involved, get the crowd engaged. Whether it's a small chants or just cheering in general. As players, we feed off of that. I know personally do.But they gave us energy down the stretch. We kind of built out of it. That's a really good team that we played tonight and they were just able to close out."

Tyus Jones

"Honestly, you just gotta, like, flush it and regroup. Take some some of the good but take some of the bad, too. Like, what didn't we do tonight that we want to improve upon tomorrow? It's a quick turn around."
