I missed it if it was said but anyone know why Q didn't play. They had it down to 12 in the 2nd half and I thought, hey not too bad, but kinda fell apart after that. Dent has definitely been impressive so far, need some other guys to step up and will need some bench production going forward.

Need to shoot better and have better shot selection. Played tough and excited for this season
