“Change doesn’t happen sitting on the sideline.”

As athletes, it’s no longer just about being the strongest, fastest, toughest, it’s so so so important to take that time for your mind and mental well-being.

I’m a guy who tries to be successful in all that I do, and when you fall short, it hurts.

I’m going to use all my tools, my God-given ability, and make the best life I can with it.

She controls the music when she rides with me.

I’m not afraid of nothing, I just like the challenge, and I love being here.

Some things never change!

My brother!! I wouldn’t be the player I am today without your commitment and friendship throughout this whole journey!

Why So Serious? Cause you’re still being doubted and there’s work that needs to be done!

When you believe in something and believe in your community, no one can stop you from creating change.

I love the success of my teammates more than my individual achievements.

Basketball isn’t easy. All my life I’ve been striving to make myself better. It’s a full time commitment.

Black holes are where God divided by zero.

Whenever someone refers to me as someone “who happens to be black,” I wonder if they realize that both my parents are black. If I had turned out to be Scandinavian or Chinese, people would have wondered what was going on.

Hating people because of their color is wrong. And it doesn’t matter which color does the hating. It’s just plain wrong.

Black people have always been used as a buffer in this country between powers to prevent class war.

Black Lives Matter. It is really that simple. Keep pushing. Keep listening.

When I find a colour darker than black, I’ll wear it. But until then, I’m wearing black!

There are no new ideas. There are only new ways of making them felt.

To be black was to be the beneficiary of a great inheritance, a special destiny, glorious burdens that only we were strong enough to bear.
