Israeli guard Ben Sharf acknowledged he can perform better, even as the Brooklyn Nets secured a 114-108 preseason victory over Philadelphia. Sharf, who played 12 minutes primarily in the final quarter, contributed a crucial offensive rebound, an assist, and a point from the free-throw line to help maintain the Nets' lead.

"I've set higher standards for myself than what I played in the last few minutes," Sharf told Sport 5. "I think in the end I always want to win and want to help the team win. I think I can do it better."

Sharf expressed enjoyment at returning to the court after a three-month absence due to injury, relishing the atmosphere of playing in front of a crowd again. He indicated a commitment to reviewing game footage and continuing to improve.
