Being a professional is doing the things you love to do, on the days you don't feel like doing them.

I had to spend countless hours, above and beyond the basic time, to try and perfect the fundamentals.

I keep both eyes on my man. The basket hasn't moved on me yet.

I pulled the plug on it at a time that I thought was right for me to exit.

But you know, we have a very normal family. We've had our ups and downs. You know, we've had our issues, but we've had great cause for celebration.

I grabbed 19 rebounds in my first professional game, and somehow found a way to score 20 points. I felt real good about it. I felt that this was the beginning of something good.

When the crowd appreciates you, it encourages you to be a little more daring, I think.
