He shot four of seven from the field and two from two at the free-throw line, while also collecting seven offensive rebounds and two steals. His plus-minus was -11 in the loss. Josh Giddey’s supplied records show no effective on-court contribution: one record is marked Played but lists zero minutes, points, rebounds and assists, while the second is marked Did not play, so no appearance was recorded. Kyrie Irving was also marked Did not play, with no appearance recorded and zeroes across his supplied statistics.
