Devin Vassell said the Bucks’ defense disrupted the final play, forcing both him and Wemby to give up the ball:
“I definitely wanted to get the shot, of course…But if it was perfect, it would have happened. But that’s not the NBA, that’s not basketball.” – 10:23 PM

Asked what he wanted on the last possession that ended up with Tre missing an open 3, Pop said, “What I wanted was a different call on the last play, where Giannis got a 3-point play, but sometimes the calls go for you, sometimes they go against you, and you got to live with it.” – 10:13 PM

Thanks to tonight’s courtside press row seat, can see Pop coaching up Blake Wesley after that failed fast break attempt.

Tre Jones gets his first start of the season for the Spurs. It’s against Giannis, Dame and the Bucks.
Also, our first look at Wemby vs. Giannis.
First time we see it? Wemby draws the foul on Giannis and gets two FTs. – 7:37 PM
