“I’m obviously not going to give you everything about my whole life, but as far as my personality, you see me all the time from watching the games.”

I don’t know what I’m going to do tomorrow. I just know for sure I’m going to keep playing basketball.

I just want to grow spiritually with the Lord. I’m keeping strong at it, just trying to make my walk with faith a little better.

I didn’t fall in love with it just because it was me playing. I fell in love with it because I’ve got guys like this – like these guys every single day that push me to be the best that I can be.

I’m not trying to have my whole life out there in the media.

I’m a basketball player. That’s what I do and what I love but that’s just not all who I am. I’m talented in a lot of different areas.

I love Oklahoma. The fans have been with me every night. What more can you ask for?

Every time I see you under the basket for a game, I feel confident. No matter how the game is going, I look at you – I say, if our owner’s behind us, we can do it all. I thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.

I’m just trying to grow. That’s one thing I told myself is, ‘Don’t worry about who people say is the best player’.

Every memory I had growing up was involving a basketball. I didn’t go to the prom and stuff like that. It was always basketball for me.

I would describe my style as off the wall. I like stuff that doesn’t match. I just like to stand out.

Set the goal and work all days for it, until you achieve, I want to be a champion, the best!

Through the tough times, you guys never left my side… That’s something that I really appreciate and I never want to take you guys for granted. I thank you so much for being part of my life. And not just on the basketball court, but giving me talks about growing as a man first, and a basketball player next.

Mr. Bennett, for just giving me this opportunity. I thank you for always being there for me when I need you.

I want to be one of the best players in the game.

I was the second-best player in high school. I was the second pick in the draft.

Grateful for this opportunity with Roc Nation Sports. It’s go time.

The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.

I want my children to have all the things I couldn’t afford. Then I want to move in with them.

The everyday practice is simply to develop a complete acceptance and openness to all situations and emotions and to all people, experiencing everything totally without mental reservations and blockages, so that one never withdraws or centralizes into oneself.

Beautiful fans of Oklahoma City, I can’t say enough about you guys. All the support you give our team. The home-court advantage we have is the best I’ve ever seen. We disappoint you sometimes, but we try our best every single night to win for you guys. And we want to win a championship for you guys.

I await your sentence with less fear than you pass it. The time will come when all will see what I see.

In all activities of life, the secret of efficiency lies in an ability to combine two seemingly incompatible states: a state of maximum activity and a state of maximum relaxation.

The man dies in all those that keep silent.

There is a reason why all things are as they are.
