I don't have to be anybody I'm not.

I play because I have fun. The vets of this team, I just wanted to say thanks to them. You guys mean so much to me. I can have a terrible day and walk in the gym and have Hasheem smile at me. That will change my day.

I'm an old-school type of guy.

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?

And last, my mom. I don’t think you know what you did. You had my brother when you were 18 years old. Three years later, I came out. The odds were stacked against us. Single parent with two boys by the time you were 21 years old. Everybody told us we weren’t supposed to be here. We went from apartment to apartment by ourselves. One of the best memories I had was when we moved into our first apartment, no bed, no furniture and we just sat in the living room and just hugged each other. We thought we made it.

I want people to know what they didn't know about me. I just wanted them to know the real side.

You can't speak openly about everything.
