It [boxing] helps my hand-eye coordination, my stamina, my footwork, and it gives me that competitive edge and drive. And in the ring it's mano-a-mano. So it helps you build that arrogance, that cockiness, that confidence in yourself that the man that stands in front of you isn't going to beat you, and that translates to the court.

I have my own identity as a player.

It's too late for me to get married before I'm famous. You never know people's intentions.

Look, I won in high school, I won a national championship in college, I want to win one in the NBA. But winning a gold medal, I don't think anything can top that.

I think I'll always want to improve my defense. That's something that can always be better. Not saying it's bad now, just something you should always work on.

People only know what they see on TV.

A lot of people I meet say, 'You remind me so much of Magic Johnson.'
