On Saturday, San Antonio Spurs guard Nando De Colo made his preseason debut as the Spurs defeated Montepaschi Siena by 29 points in the AT&T Center. For De Colo, playing an Italian club was a familiar experience, though playing an Italian team in the United States may have been something that he had not imagined before.

Before De Colo scored two points, dished three assists, and stole the ball three times on Saturday, I caught up with the French guard for the first time this season.

De Colo was sitting quietly in the locker room, preparing himself for the game at hand. I asked him if I could conduct an interview, and he said yes.

My first question to De Colo was how he had felt going through a week of training camp. He said he was fine and his new teammates will be there for him should he need a helping hand.

“It’s OK,” said De Colo of training camp for one week, “I’m fine with the team. If I need some help, everyone is there to help me.”
