The game has basically not changed since I ended my career.

As a parent, I have a job as a role model to my children, and by extension, to other young people.

If I hadn't become a professional basketball player, I would have become a history teacher. There's so much to learn from history.

I was just starting out acting [doing "Airplane"] and wanted to be taken as a professional, not as an athlete doing a cameo.

My mother had to send me to the movies with my birth certificate, so that I wouldn't have to pay the extra fifty cents that the adults had to pay.

In the Western standards of modesty, there are different guidelines.

I'm not comfortable being preachy, but more people need to start spending as much time in the library as they do on the basketball court.
