Like I said, it’s not a one-man problem. And so for him, it’s about understanding that control what you can control. Continue to prepare. Continue to study hard. And yeah, keep your head up. He’s a young player. I mean, I’ve seen tons of guys switch systems. Switch coaches, whatever it may be. And really start to shine. Yeah, it’s about really just knowing that he’s gotten to this point by playing a lot of great ball in his career. That didn’t go away overnight. So, stay true to him,” Prescott finished.
