Yanic Konan Niederhauser

Q. Talk about your experience tonight. How do you feel?

YANIC KONAN NIEDERHAUSER: Man, I feel grateful. I feel happy, excited and just thankful. Coming out here, I have all my family here. Getting called up, it was just amazing.

Q. Is there a certain feeling that comes with coming from the stands, hoping you get a chance to make that walk to the stage the way you were able to?

YANIC KONAN NIEDERHAUSER: Yeah, it made me -- I was nervous up there. I'm like, I really want to be there. I really want to walk up there, shake Adam Silver's hand. I really got nervous a lot.

But I just let the night go on, and now I'm a Clipper.

Q. When you look at that roster and thinking about playing with guys like Kawhi or James, what excites you the most about getting to L.A. and getting to work?

YANIC KONAN NIEDERHAUSER: What excites me the most is all the stuff I can learn from them. Both players are skilled offensively and also defensively. All the stuff I can learn from all the veterans there, that's what I'm looking forward to most.
