“I’ve been successful in different areas, but nothing brings a smile to my face more than my oldest son, Zaire, and my second son, Zion, saying the kind word of ‘Dad.’”

The biggest surprise has been making the adjustment after losing a game.

I think about my sons and the legacy I have to leave for them – and it always brings me back to reality.

When I first got into the league, I tried to fit in. Now I don’t care.

I think the main thing for kids is to have them believe in themselves.

Man, anytime the ball goes through the basket. It doesn’t matter if it’s a jumper or a drive.

I think the biggest thing I’ve learned is to not really worry what people will say or think about what you wear.

I wanted to be a football player. Football is a sport that I love, but the more I started playing basketball, the more I started dreaming of playing in the NBA.

I’m on a team with LeBron James and Chris Bosh, and they both dress well. It gets competitive. If I don’t bring my A game, they’re going to outshine me.

Over my career, I’ve had to adjust my game.

People don’t need to necessarily see me in the jersey to understand who I am and what message I’m trying to get across with the things that I’m marketing.

I think you really have to become a parent to understand what you will endure to be there for your kids.

Unless you sit down and talk to your dad and say, ‘Why weren’t you there?’ and he says, ‘I’m going to really tell you the truth,’ then you won’t know.

Wherever you go, things change you. I mean, obviously moving to Miami and becoming part of the NBA has given me a different perspective on style than I had when I lived in Chicago or Milwaukee.

As long as you put on a jersey, no matter what kind of jersey it is, as long as you’re supporting the game of basketball, I enjoy it.

Yes, it’s true – I love the roar of the crowd. When the fans are with you, their voices come together in a big booming rush of sound that you can actually feel in your body – almost like a wave that lifts you and carries you past your own limits.

I’m just showing my personality in my clothing.
