I wanted to do two things when I was growing up, about your age. I wanted to play in the NBA, and I wanted to be a businessman after my basketball career was over, and that is what I am doing now.

When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are.

Don't give up! Be friends with people who help you work hard.

Everyone thought I was going to die like a year later, they didn't know. So I helped educate sports, and then the world, that a man living with HIV can play basketball. He's not going to give it to anybody by playing basketball.

The real story is that I had unprotected sex. That's that. That's easy.

I only know how to play two ways: reckless and abandon.

You don't have to be Magic to be special. You're already special, you're you.
