In the game of basketball, I play first off because I love it. I love to have fun. I love to run up and down the court.

I ride for my guys. That's the bro code.

If it's controversy out there, or if it's some false stories out there, I want to clear it up. That's just what I'm all about.

I feel as though I've proved myself these last five years that I can be one of the top players in the league.

If I'd gone straight to the NBA, I don't think I would have been ready as a player or a person.

I play basketball. I can't control the media, the way I play. I can't control all of it.

This means the world to me that you guys are here with me celebrating with me. Thank you. Thank you. I can’t express it enough.
