Kai averaged 25.6 points, 5.2 assists, and 5.0 rebounds, pairing well with Doncic's 33.9 points, 9.8 assists, and 9.2 boards en route to the fifth-best record in the regular season (50-32).

Garibotto shared Shams Charania's Instagram post on her story with a emotional message. "When the world tried to bring you down, your head was always up," Garibotto wrote in the caption. "You're the truth Mr. Beasley."
