“The bench did an amazing job. Trent was amazing. I don’t think we win this game without him, with the minutes he gave us in the third and the fourth,” said Rudy Gobert. “This one feels good because it was a fight.”
Forrest’s contributions were subtle with seven points, three assists and two rebounds in 15 minutes, but positive things usually happened during the three-to-four minutes stretches he played in all four quarters.
