My attitude going into training camp as a rookie was to impress. I wanted to impress my teammates, my coaches, the owners, everybody. I wanted them to say, ?This kid is special. This kid has the right mind, the right skills, the right motivation?.

When I step onto the court, I'm ready to play. If you're going up against me, you'd better be ready. If you're not going to compete, I will dominate you.

To learn to succeed, you must first learn to fail.

The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.

If I thought of the number of people who were watching me as I got ready to shoot, I?d miss it.

I'd like to be settled into somewhat of a normal life. Somewhat. I know it's never going to be completely normal.

Any fear is an illusion. You think something is standing in your way, but nothing is really there. What is there is an opportunity to do your best and gain some success.
