First off, I'd like to thank God for changing my life. It let me really realize what life is all about. Basketball is just a platform for me to inspire people, and I realize that.

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

Whoever want my spot can play me one-on-one for it.

It's all about knowing the balance, because I like to remain somewhat of a mystery. You need to have that, you know what I mean?

I want to be one of the best players in the game.

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

I want to have some stuff that I keep for myself, my friends, my family, my loved ones. That's how I view.
