Audio of that interaction right here. @tlo-l-w.bsky.social: Thought it was interesting how Finch stressed that scoring is not a problem, but playmaking is. Walking that fine line is hard to do

Chris Finch postgame, when I asked about the focus of putting Rob Dillingham in so many different lineups (via @tlo-l-w.bsky.social): "We don't want to make Rob a three-level scorer, he want him to be a playmaker first."

Joan Beringer rim contest to force a Jalen Brunson miss.

He is then rewarded by Rob Dillingham on the other end with a lob dunk.

Nooooo Jaden McDaniels seemed to role his left ankle after a rebound attempt.

Intentionally fouls to get himself out of the game, but he's been worked on near the tunnel before heading to tunnel. Gingerly walking off on his own power at least. 🙏
