Diabate collected 11 rebounds against Philadelphia, which pales in comparison to the career night he turned in during Friday night’s win, when he snatched 15 rebounds and totaled 11 on the defensive end. He’s the first player in franchise history and 28th in NBA history to amass 15 rebounds while not scoring and couldn’t be prouder of the feat. “Honestly, it’s just my role, what’s asked of me to do,” Diabate said. “Play hard, give life to the team and just give everything I have. I think those are the things that I’m coming in to do. I’m not really pressed about the points or anything like that. So, anything like that, I just want to make an impact and help the team win. That’s my biggest strength — playing hard.”
