Once you open your eyes and start looking around you, you start picking up things that are very obvious.

Dear Basketball, From the moment I started rolling my dad's tube socks and shooting imaginary game-winning shots ... I fell in love with you.

This is an award I couldn't have won on my own. I can't thank these guys enough. These are my guys, these are my brothers.

You just try to take it one day at a time, ... You step on the basketball floor and just play. It's fun. I'm comfortable with it.

I'm playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that's what I've always wanted.

Sometimes I do wonder what college would have been like. But I made my decision.

I'm here. I'm not going anywhere. No matter what the injury - unless it's completely debilitating - I'm going to be the same player I've always been. I'll figure it out. I'll make some tweaks, some changes, but I'm still coming.
