Tony had a great offensive game. He hit some big shots. I'm not sure how many rebounds he ended up with, but it seemed like he was all over the place.

We are trying to take this one game at a time and not get ahead of ourselves. We know we need Sacramento to lose a couple and we need to win. That's why tonight was a great victory.

The kid lost his mom and dad and both brothers. Imagine losing your whole family.
