Thanks Tevin for talking to germanhoops.com. Where are you at the moment and how is basketball life treating you?

I’m in Finland right now playing in 1st division A. Basketball has been treating me good after sitting out of year because of passport issues I was ready to get back on the court as soon as possible and I think my play this year as shown that.

Congrats on getting by HBA-Marsky 3-1. You saved your best for last scoring 45 points. How draining was this series? They were all shoot out games.

This was great series between them I think they were a great test for us to go into the semifinals and be ready for JBA. The team getting healthy and I think we are ready.

Talk a little about the game. What was key in crunch-time for getting the win?

I think me being the point guard was a key and was just to the settle the team down when they made runs and being a great leader.

You have had many explosive games in your rookie season, but 45 points was the most so far. Was that the most points that you have scored in a game in your life?

Yes 45 is the most I scored in my life I had 43 and 42 a couple times. I have had a couple 40 point games this year.

Did you eat anything special for breakfast or was it the just normal pre game routine?

It was a normal day I didn’t do anything special.

How quickly did you know during the game that you would have another really good scoring game?

I knew it would be a good scoring game at halftime. I had 20 points at halftime and barely missed any shots. I had 20 a couple times at halftime this season but wasn’t as efficient as this game.

You weren´t far away from 50 points. Do you feel like some of your 2 point attempts could have been made?

I had like one of two that got blocked and yea a some of them where short because fatigue kicked in.

Now that you have hit for 45 points, is 50 points a goal?

I always feel like I could score 50 just like last game I took a couple plays getting denied and getting double teamed. So yes 50 is a goal if I get the chance.

What was your favorite own bucket and assist of the game?

I made a three in the third quarter where I shot it and turned around before the ball was halfway to the rim.

Did you get any special congratulations after the game from someone that you didn´t expect from?

Not really nobody special. People have seen me have a games like that through my high school and college career.

Do you get donuts or did the team take you out to dinner?

We got something to eat right after the game but nothing too special.

Thanks Tevin for the chat.
