I thought, if I went into business I'd be able to control my own destiny.

The Memorial Dedication was a momentous occasion

My passion for music has always inspired my designs.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I wanted to build some kind of lifestyle brand that was preppy and cool.

Off the court, I tend to stick to the classics, but I like to have fun with color and accessories. I'm from Spain, so colors are important for me.

A classic, navy blue blazer is my staple. It's a look that can take you from office meetings to dinner out with friends or family.

I looked at the rap community like street kids wanting their own brand. But now I look at that period with the rappers in the 90s as a trend of the moment. What it taught me was never to follow a trend, because trends move on.
