Ayinde Ubaka Quotations

We're really excited, we've worked really hard all year playing for this. This is our last chance to win the title. We just have to take care of our business and everything falls into place.

We correct those two things and we'll be in the game.

A ranking is just a number by a name. We knew we could do it. We believed.

There was a lot of pressure going into this game.

That kind of cheers you up, but we just lost a tournament championship.

He stripped it. All ball. We both went for it. I got it back. I put it in.

He single-handedly carried us for damn near the whole game.
