Ive been fortunate to be short my entire life. Theres only one position Ive ever had to play, and thats point guard. So Ive always had to be that leader. And that was my job: you know, to talk.

I had never been to Oklahoma City before. I had no clue. Just heard there were a lot of tornadoes.

I always tell D-West, 'We're the leaders on the team, and if we go down, we've got to go down shooting.'

I was always into sports games. Never really played anything else. I grew up on games like Madden and NBA Jam.

Being close ain't good enough.

Family was real important in putting me on my path. I'm so blessed to come from a home with a mother and a father.

For me, hip-hop culture is involved in everything - it's in me, in who I am, in how I dress, how I talk. It's in my son and my wife.
