It's always been my dream to play in the NBA.

There's times you want to give up and times you want to move on ... you get so much satisfaction out of staying and sticking with it, and seeing things turn around.

I've never even been into those supplements or any of that. I don't even drink energy shakes. I'm not into that kind of stuff. You just get me an In-N-Out burger and some Popeye's fried chicken and I'm straight.

Listening and talking to my teammates has helped me learn the NBA game. I know that talent can only take you so far.

I just take what comes to me. If the drive is there, Im going to take it. If its not there, Ill take a pull-up shot. Im a confident player down the stretch and I feel like I can make the play when I have to.

Who cares who gets the last shot or scores the most points? Who cares who gets the credit? If we win, we're all winners.

At the end of the day, the ultimate goal is winning the ballgame.
