The Frenchman took responsibility and stated that he will use the episode as motivation for the next confrontation with the New York team.
“Yeah. I threw everything away. I made a mistake, we didn’t play well collectively. We needed the victory, this game was ours. But now it’s happened. Will I regret it? Yes, of course. Will I use it as motivation for the next game? For sure,” said the Frenchman after the defeat.
“Of course I liked the position (of the shot), but it was a time to shoot to score. In these moments, results matter more than processes. I needed to score. That’s all that mattered,” concluded Wembanyama.
