A lot of times when I'm in the gym, I might not have that energy but I realize what I'm doing it for and it gives me the strength to do one more extra rep, to do one more set or to push even harder, and to not let whatever obstacle is in front of me stop me from reaching my goal.

The only way to shut people up is just by winning and just playing basketball.

I had a lot of negativity growing up, so I understand how to block the negativity out.

Always look at what your goal is. Understand that there are going to be days when you feel like crap. There are going to be days where you feel like "I don't want to do this" but you've got to understand what you're doing it for.

Today is a new day. Even if you were wrong yesterday, you can get it right today.

When I'm smiling, I'm supposedly not taking the game seriously. When I'm not smiling, then it's like, "He don't care. He's just out there."

I changed up everything around me. I hold myself more accountable in certain situations. I try to be a better man, a better father, a better teammate.
