My dream was to become a rec league coach. That's what I wanted to do. I wanted to stay home and help the kids out and be a coach.

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.

All this stuff is kind of surreal to me - Ididn't think I'd be in the league or none of that. It was making it to college. That's about it.

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'm just more content with myself. Like, if I've got something to say, I want to get it off of my chest.

My mother taught me to always be strong and always work hard. She's been working hard her whole life for me and my brother. I'm a lot like her in that I work hard for what I want. She taught me that.
