@mercury_in_reggaeton: "also loved seeing you play with confidence again like last season/last post season. miss some make some, but you made enough to get a double double and for the entire rest of the starting squad to score at least 20. like gretzky said, you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take 🙌🙌🙌"

@dalesaferstein: "Careful with that hamstring. Saw that in Q1"

@puertorican_queen_d: "Hope your feeling better, what a great team win"
