Parents, they're strict on you when you're little, and you don't understand why. But as you get older, you understand and you appreciate it.

Yelling doesn't get your point across, it only makes it louder.

I know most of the black players who preceded and followed me at Duke. They all contribute to our tradition of excellence on the court.

People don't realize the amount of stress you put on your body both physically and mentally from just the wear and tear of a season.

I tried to make a point of doing things outside the box, of not having basketball consume me.

The accomplishments in college and even in the pros are more in my mind because you constantly see Duke on TV during basketball season. You constantly see the NBA.
