"It is a difficult year. There are several very good teams.I tell everyone to really support us.To support us in our ups and downs," the American said.
"It's a long season; there will be good times and bad times, so if you don't really support us or only support us on our good days and keep saying negative things on bad nights, just get out of our way," he stated seriously. "We don't have time for that; we're human, and we want to get out there and do our best. If you support us, do it through thick and thin," he concluded.
Canaan also praised his new teammate Moses Wright for a strong entry into the EuroLeague.
"We have to give him a lot of congratulations for coming and playing his first game in the EuroLeague," noted Canaan. It's not easy. All that energy he gave us was just what we needed. He did an amazing job," he said of his teammate.
