“I’m the kind of parent who asks my kids questions like, ‘What would be your ideal thing to do in the summer?’”

My upbringing involves individuals who helped me along the way. I don’t think I would be here today without that support.

I’m an athlete, so I can dress down with the best of them. I can throw on t-shirts and sweats with the best of them.

Most days I am in public. If I go to the store, with social media, I’m in public. It might as well be a press conference.

I think people have had the understanding for many years that whatever happens with the separation of parents, that the kids automatically go to the mother. The fathers don’t know their rights.

I’m scared of needles.

Guys who might not be superstars but because of their hustle, because of the little things they do, these are the guys who can really mean the difference between winning and losing.

I’m a playmaker, and I’m going to score. At the end of the day, my job is to put the ball in the basket.

You have to wear what feels good on you, what you feel comfortable in. And I’ve just learned to not really care.

Whenever there is a big game and people don’t think I can do it, I always play my hardest, and now it has become a part of me.

To wear a gray tweed suit, you have to be mature and confident in yourself. Some people can’t pull it off.

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

No, he was in agony, and he looked down at us – denying him, abandoning him, and betraying him – and in the greatest act of love in history, he STAYED. He said, “Father, forgive them, they don’t know what they are doing.” He loved us, not because we were lovely to him, but to make us lovely.

Resisting is worth doing.

It’s great that in life you do something that you want to do because you like doing it and you’re not bored. I’m not bored at all. I’m even interested in lots of things, more so today than before.

All we can do is go around telling the truth.

Life is a do-it-yourself kit, so do it yourself. Work. Practice.
