After earning his first playoff victory of his career, Banchero and his teammates are nowhere near satisfied. He spoke on that during his postgame interview.
“Nobody’s partying,” said Banchero, who had no turnovers in 29 minutes after committing 15 in the first two games. “We know we have to do the same thing on Saturday. We’re proud of the win tonight. It is big for this group to get your first playoff win but we want the whole series.”
