Current“He wants to know and he’ll ask questions about it. He’s gone out there and found, I think, a comfort zone where he feels like he can ask all of these questions.”
The Silver and Black will begin the 2024-25 regular season with an Oct. 24 game against the Dallas Mavericks on that team’s home court.
