I never feared about my skills because I put in the work. Work ethic eliminates fear. So if you put forth the work, what are you fearing? You know what you're capable of doing and what you're not.

I never looked at the consequences of missing a big shot... when you think about the consequences you always think of a negative result.

It is nerve-wracking watching my kids' games.

My fellow Wilmington, North Carolina native Meadowlark Lemon is a true national treasure. I watched him play for the Harlem Globetrotters when I was growing up and his skill with the basketball and dedication to the game were an inspiration not only to me, but to kids all around the world.

If you love the game, nobody can take that from you.

People ask me if I could fly, I said, 'yeah....' for a little while.

I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me . . . Failure always made me try harder next time.
