The Debut
”Coach Kenny, he was actually hands on, he was the one instructing me through the entire workout. That was different for me” Okafor said in his introduction to the media. “Usually it’s the assistant coaches who handle that.”
He added, “To see the head coach out there, working with me, helping me shoot, running with me, guarding me a few times – it was different. I enjoyed it.”
“All three of us worked together yesterday morning,” said Stauskas. “I don’t know how, they said they got back from Mexico City pretty late. But he was in here yesterday morning and we got a good workout in.”
“I’m very excited,” said Stauskas. “From talking with coach (Kenny) Atkinson, the offense that they run here, I feel like I’m very suitable for that. It’s something I’m comfortable doing. When I first came here, I can’t remember who it was, someone told me to shoot to kill. I think that’s a good motto to live by and I’m excited to get involved in that.”
