Gan Guoyang's return to Portland for a game ended in an unexpected manner, with an unexpected result.
After the game, Gan Guoyang came out of the locker room for an interview, and faced with reporters' questions, he remained silent for a long time.
After a while, he said: "This feeling is too complex, hard to put into words."
At the post-game press conference, when asked why he didn't take the shot himself in the final play, Gan Guoyang said: "I completely respect the coach's arrangement, it has nothing to do with who the opponent is. I was the third option in this tactical setup and a point of defensive attraction. The Glory Team is a collective, we all completed our tasks, and I am proud of them."
Throughout the game, Gan Guoyang scored 44 points, once again dominating the court.
However, even with such a splendid performance, the Glory Team only won by one point, needing a buzzer-beater to secure the victory.
