What can be learned from the game?
I believe that we gave our best and fulfilled all the requirements. Despite our lack of experience, we compensated with our determination. Our coach told us that we lost on our own terms, but we were up against a strong team.
The inexperienced Portland Trail Blazers team was unable to defeat the underdeveloped Denver Nuggets team on Saturday evening, losing 114-111. Following the match, sophomore forward Jabari Walker spoke with reporters while in the team’s dressing room.
We can hold our heads high with that. We can be very optimistic. Not just for the current situation, but for the future. We have some talented guys, we have guys with the right mindset. And it just gives us nothing but confidence and joy to know that we have a great young core.
Below are a few notable statements from Walker’s appearance.
