I fell so many times and got back up. I been through the toughest times with my family, but I’m still standing.

I'm busy working on every aspect of my game - defense, shooting, rebounding - but I really want to become a better overall team player. Help my teammates become better players out on the court in order to win more ball games.

Russell... I love you. I thank you so much man. You made me better. You know, Your work ethic. I always wanted to compete with you. I always wanted to pull up into the parking lot of the practice facility, And if you beat me there, I was always upset. I always wanted to outwork you. And you set the bar. You set the tone. And thank you so much man. Thank you. You had a big piece of this MVP trophy. You're an MVP caliber player It's a blessing to play with you man.

I want to show people who I really am, especially aspiring basketball players who want to be at this level. That's what I'm about.

I like the nucleus that we have. I'm excited. I want to be here as long as possible. It's like family. I love being here.

It's hard to play well, but it's easy to work hard.

You know, I don't want to stand out too much.
