It represents a Bible verse I wear on my shoe. Philippians 4:13. It says 'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.' It's also my mantra, how I get up for games and why I play the way I do.

I love that basketball gives me the opportunities to do good things for people and to point them towards the Man who died for our sins on the cross.

I have much less confidence on the greens than I do on the court. Everybody asks like if putting is like shooting free throws. Like that six-footer for par or something like that. It has a very similar kind of mindset.

In my late teens, like many a devout Catholic boy, I considered the priesthood and even went as far as discussing the idea at a seminary in Belfast but hesitated. I decided to focus on physics at university, another way perhaps to contemplate the mysteries of reality.

Basketball was mine, and that's what's carried me to this point.

Success is not an accident, success is actually a choice.

I'm pretty much on the "eat whatever you can diet," just to get calories in, so I can maintain myself throughout the season.
