Jaylen Brown says he didn’t feel tightness leading up to the game, but then he felt it at the start. He says it stayed consistent throughout the game and didn’t get any worse, which he says is a good sign. – 11:11 PM

Stephen Silas on Jalen Green as a PnR ball-handler: “The way that we’re structured, you’re gonna see more PnRs than dribble hand-offs…We still can’t throw away the fact this is Game 15 for a 19 year-old. His PnR game is going to be really good at some point. It’s just not yet.” – 6:26 PM
