Every memory I had growing up was involving a basketball. I didn't go to the prom and stuff like that. It was always basketball for me.

I look at my jersey and see the NBA logo, I'm like, 'I didn't think I'd be here.'

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

Last, I just want to thank God again. He's the first and the last. Alpha and Omega. I thank you for saving my life.

I've learned that it's harder to try to put on this goody two-shoes persona when that's not me.

It's not always like I'm right, and you're wrong. It's both ways.

We're talking too much about what goes on in the stands, nothing about what goes on on the court.
