Jeremiah Fears | Pelicans-Thunder Postgame Interview | 2025 NBA Summer League

put together what looked like your best game so far in summer league. Just way you took the court tonight. What was different about it? Um just trying to learn something from every game and carrying it on from game to game and just trying to keep getting better every single game. People say the game slows down a little bit. Do you kind of feel like you’ve caught on to maybe the speed, the athleticism that you’re seeing out here? Yes, for sure. Um I would say probably a little bit in the second half of the second game I kind of start to figure out the pace and the game starts slowing down. What is the balance between being assertive, getting to the hoop, and then obviously trying to set up your teammates as well? Um, just learning when to pick your spots, when to kind of take the shot and when to get your teammates involved and getting your teammates involved early is going to help you and the team as well. Level of physicality. I mean, you’re not afraid obviously to to go inside and go up and you’re finishing out there. How has that been as an adjustment? Really just learning. It’s their guys are a lot more athletic. So just learning kind of where to put it on the backboard and how how to get it just so you get a ball a chance and opportunity to go in. Jed maybe not the wins and losses you want but it’s about learning here. Coach Bruiser and you’re where do you think you’ve made the most growth over the last four games just as a person and learning what’s going to be required from you in the NBA. Um just continuing to be vocal. Um you got to lead as a point guard especially in NBA. Um just continuing to be vocal and trying to learn every single game. uh learning my teammates and learning kind of what positions and what spots they like to be in and try to help put them in those positions. Gotcha. And then learning off the court, getting your mentality right, your nutrition. Has there been anything you’ve learned there? And then maybe a vet that’s helped you, you know, get up to speed. Y um just continue to eat the right stuff. Uh kind of ask your nutrition is kind of um what you should be putting in your body, how many calories you intake, and just continue to take uh your vitamins, your daily shakes and smoothies as well. Appreciate you. Yes, sir. Thank you.
