I love fashion as much as I love basketball! It is a great joy for me to express myself through designing my own collection.

My life is very simple. I like simplicity and for my time to be my own, so that I have the freedom to devote the majority of it to Islam.

God comes first. Paradise is not cheap.

The key to fashion is, you don't want to look like you're trying. You've gotta be natural.

The most important thing in a person's life is his faith and how he translates his faith into practical deeds.

When I look at the system here and look at my position - not just as a basketball player, but when I look around me at the values of the people and the culture and compare them with the values of where I came from - I feel so blessed to be from Africa.

I was doing just my duty, but that was impacting a lot of people and making them proud. So, I feel so grateful to Allah for giving me that opportunity while I had that chance to make that impact. And thankfully it impacted all the people - more than I realized.
