Nicolas Batum: “We have experienced situations like this”
“There are still a lot of lost balls, even if we fought. We have six days left. We have been in situations like this, we were able to bounce back. Three of the four games we play, we are in the game every time. We will have to stay focused and continue to work.”
23:01
Victor Wembanyama: “We will be ready in six days”
“I think we lacked the concentration to finish the match well. I think we had a solid performance, but we have things to improve for the Games. We are not ready, but we will be in six days. We made the choice to have a complicated preparation, I know we will be there. I am not worried. I am trying to adapt to my role. We all get along well, we have the tools to resolve tactical issues.
