“I’m playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that’s what I’ve always wanted.”

My parents are my backbone. Still are. They’re the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40.

If you make it, great. If you miss it – what’s there to be afraid of?

You’re my backbone. You’re a blessing. You’re a piece of my heart. You’re the air I breathe. And you’re the strongest person I know, and I’m so sorry for having to put you through this and having to put our family through this.

I don’t just try to score. The challenge is elevating my teammates to be able to win a championship.

Sometimes I do wonder what college would have been like. But I made my decision.

I’ve known for a long time that they’re a bunch of idiots.

I was just letting the shots fly. You know, I don’t leave any bullets in the chamber.

One thing you gotta know about me is I have absolutely no filter. I have no problem saying what the hell I think of someone.

You just stay patient, that’s all.

Once you open your eyes and start looking around you, you start picking up things that are very obvious.

You have to be true to who you are.

The party’s just getting started. This is where the fun starts.

I had some shots that I felt like I should’ve made; I just didn’t make them. I’m not going to shoot the ball great every night.

We all can be masters at our craft, but you have to make sacrifices that come along with making that decision.

Everything has a purpose. And that purpose has a story that goes along with it. It just depends on what your passion is.

You can’t be held captive by the fear of failure or the fear of what people may say.
