KZ Okpala Loses Himself In The Best Way Possible

There’s 2:39 left in the first quarter of the HEAT’s preseason finale against the Raptors.

KZ Okpala is on the right wing as Goran Dragiu0107 and Precious Achiuwa run a pick-and-roll at the top of the key. Dragiu0107 attacks downhill and looks at Andre Iguodala in the right corner, but instead fires it to Okpala, who sinks his third three of the quarter.

His reaction?

“I think I lost myself in [Friday]’s game,” Okpala said. “And that’s why everyone hoops, to lose yourself.”

Of course, he’s talking about losing yourself in a positive way where you become so fixated on one goal or task.
