Duvalier Johnson

It just... Just all bad.

Like, all lazy bad execution in the last minute of the game that...

They just let them hang around.

That's like one of these classic, let them hang around, let them hang around.

I thought he earned it, too.

He absolutely did.

He's just playing with such energy and effort, and it's all tied to confidence, obviously, but he just looks like he's not intimidated at all anymore.

He's slicing through the defense.

He's getting to the rim.

He's coming up with big defensive rebounds.

He's absolutely not getting taken advantage of on defense anymore.

He's just making the right plays.

He

This was kind of the path.

It looked like he might be on coming into the season, but obviously so many things derailed him.

And it started to look like maybe he was never going to get his shot again to prove that he's an NBA player.

But, I mean, he absolutely is.

And we're now, I think it's the fifth game in a row where he's scored like 15, 16, 19, 18, 20 games.

um and to get a 20-point score nightly is i mean that's a good player in the nba a 20-point score is like a very good player in the nba and he's proven to be that like if we can get more and more of this obviously there were so many other things to complain about in this game like so many clunky things things that weren't working guys not making the right plays but julian strother was the man tonight

Yeah, he was scoring from more than one level.
