Live broadcast, February 3 News Knight guard Garland was asked how he felt when Mitchell cut 71 points when he was visiting the TheOldMan & TheThree podcasting program recently.
Garland said, “I thought to myself, ‘what kind of fairy competition am I watching? As the game progresses, we urgently need every goal of him. I remember that at some pause, I said to him, ‘if you really want to, you can get 70 points!’
“His answer is ‘let’s win this game, let’s win this game! ‘I told him that if he scored 70 points Yogueta, he would make history! I didn’t play in that game because of injury, and when he scored 30 points, I began to watch the ball like a fan.”
