Although the team did not get the win, Luka was just happy being back on the court. "I'm getting my wind back, a little bit tired now, but it felt great to be back," Luka told the media after the game.

It was a long game. I was just excited, it was my first game back, I was really excited. Some calls we could've controlled but we have to stop fouling," Luka explained. "It's tough to win the game with 42 free throws, so we have to stop fouling. Overall, I think we did well."

"It's basketball, I'm just excited to be back. I have fun out there just playing basketball," Doncic told the press about the positives of the game. "What could be better than in the playoffs? Playoffs are always exciting, so I'm just glad to be back."

Talking about the final play of the game, Doncic took partial blame.

"We didn't really execute it well. I should've maybe driven the ball, we should've got a better shot. It's tough. We had a game, now it's 2-2. We just have to learn from it and go to the next one."
