J Redick: “I was happy for the group to connect again. You can go on the road and things don’t go your way…Sometimes you need to win to feel that connection and I think the group felt that today.”
JJ Redick says he's "not surprised" that D'Angelo Russell approached the game the way he did tonight and had a strong performance.
"He has a strong desire to win and be coached."
JJ Redick reiterates that the starting lineup change is "all very fluid."
“The right thing to do for right now.”
Redick was also very pleased with Cam Reddish, who’s been building trust with his play of late, and his focus defensively (Reddish took only one shot in 28 minutes).
D'Angelo Russell emphasized that he "just wants to win" a few times when he was questioned about the move to the bench.
He says he is willing to do whatever is asked of him. He added that he wants to be professional and "left all my baggage at the door coming into this season."
AD on his foot: “It hurts, definitely bothering me, but I’ll figure it out. Getting it loose enough to go out there and play, and try to manage it throughout the course of the game so it doesn’t tighten up. It felt good for the most part … off days are the most crucial to get it feeling good for game day.”

I'd like to know what happened to Cam
He went 40/50 point games to a defensive "specialist"
