Unexpected hero, Damion Lee marked the spirits for his first game with the Suns by scoring eleven points in the last quarter as well as the winning basket against the Mavericks. And not an easy shot at all.
“The ball was in my hands, I just had to do the action”comments the former Warriors for the PA. “I know people are going to talk about my shot, but it was a team effort. »
We expected more Devin Booker in the role of the killer, but the back was targeted by Dallas. “They double-crossed me so I made the right choice. I trust my teammates.”reacted the triple All-Star.
Damion Lee therefore did the rest, to the delight of Stephen Curry. The two men are close, not only for having shared four seasons together at Golden State, but also because the Phoenix guard is the brother-in-law of the 2022 Finals MVP since his marriage to his sister, Sydel Curry.
In front of his screen and after Damion Lee’s decisive shot, the Warriors playmaker let his joy explode. “The children are asleep, I don’t care! », shouted the quadruple champion, on Instagram. Obviously, this exultation will not be without consequences. “I’m sorry, Canon is crying. I woke him up”continues Stephen Curry.
