Most people compliment me on maintaining my femininity while I'm on the court. People like the fact that I model. My fans or little girls always say they want to play sports, but also want to be a model like me and I think that's great.

My success has surpassed my childhood dreams.

For me, being tall was very positive because I thought my mom was the most beautiful person ever.

I have 'the first' attached to my name in a whole lot of different aspects when it comes to the sport of basketball.

Well, the first quality of being a good leader is you have to be able to follow. See, a good leader cant just be the leader all the time, I have to be able to follow.

When I set a goal, I work hard to achieve it.

The one thing I learned about myself going back and watching tapes of all the losses that we've had is that I'm physically capable of doing this and dominating the game, but the mental part was not there. I don't know if it comes with age, but I had to learn to be mentally tough.
