My dad taught me that you have to work hard for anything you want in life, and I wanted to be good at playing basketball.

I know there are expectations, but I don't let them affect mt game. I just play basketball.

Going to LSU was the right move for me. It taught me to be independent.

That's the whole goal, to win the national championship. You can't have a legacy without one.

Anytime I mess up, even if it's a simple turnover, that affects me.

Awards, they come and go. The main thing is it's all about team.

I don't think there is a city we've been to that someone didn't know who I was. People know who I am before I touch the ball.
