I'm going forward with my plans for life. I'm looking at things not only basketball-wise, but personal-wise.

Whenever there is a big game and people don't think I can do it, I always play my hardest, and now it has become a part of me.

I would have to name two people - my parents. I've seen them come through adversity and work hard to create the best life for me and my siblings. Although I don't remember them together as a couple, I remember the love they had for their children.

I am very happy to be here in the NBA.

Fatherhood, to me, isn't something you do for awards or acclaim. It's a privilege and a huge responsibility

Immediately after games, we're talking about what we need to do for the next game. We're not satisfied in the moment that we're in.

I think everything happens as it's supposed to. I don't want to force anything. I want it to be so authentic that it's seamless.
