00:00When Jason goes down and can't play tonight,

00:03Jalen steps up not only with 36 points,

00:06but with 10 rebounds and 5 assists,

00:09what does that say about him as a player?

00:12I mean...

00:14A lot.

00:15At the end of the day, he's willing to do whatever it takes for us to win.

00:17He didn't come in saying he had to get 36-10.

00:21He came in and said, I'm going to do whatever it takes to win.

00:23That's what he told me yesterday.

00:26That's just the mindset that he has.

00:28Regardless of if it's going well for him or not,

00:31he can take it to another level, and he did that for us,

00:33and I thought the guys kind of fed off of that.

00:35Jalen, how in general do you approach games when Jason's not going to play,

00:39when you know he's not going to be out there with you,

00:40and how specifically did that affect your mindset

00:43going into tonight's game and your plan?

00:46No different.

00:46You know, obviously, JT is, you know, the offensive leader of our team.

00:52We all kind of play off of him, but, you know, any given night,

00:55you know, I could, you know, rise to the occasion.

00:58You know, I just do what the team needs me to do.

01:01You know, I've taken that mentality, and I think sometimes people, you know,

01:05think that's like the only thing that you can do.

01:08So, you know, tonight I got lucky, I guess, you know, but we'll be ready for the next one.

01:13key.
