“I’m very active on social media and see the huge impact it has on engaging with fans and being able to have a voice.”

With the NBA’s dress code, I had to revamp my wardrobe a little bit. They call it ‘business casual.’ You have to wear dress jeans or dress slacks, with a collared shirt or sweater. And you can’t wear athletic shoes.

Everybody asks if putting is like shooting free throws. It has a very similar kind of mindset. And it’s just you, the ball, and the target.

Most of the stuff I try in a game, in the moment, I have supreme confidence I’m going to execute it.

We knew sports was important to us and our family, but there are priorities in life.Obviously, faith is foremost; how we did in school is important. If we didn’t handle that business then there were no privileges.

We’re going to have to work. We’re going to have to play well. Nothing will be given to us.

I want people to understand they have to live their own lives the way they want to and not just do what we do.

Control your own destiny! Control your own destiny!

Sometimes people make it seem like you have to have certain prerequisites or a crazy life story in order to be successful in this world. But the truth is you really don’t.

That feeling is so intoxicating, walking off the court holding the Larry O’Brien trophy. So I just want to do that again.

I always have an optimistic view, no matter what it is.

I just feel so much more comfortable and confident every game I play.

I am not a BART regular but have taken it probably five times to and from the city with some of my teammates. Nice to just hop on the train and enjoy some of the views of the Bay Area while I’m out.

I never looked at my mantel and envisioned an MVP trophy sitting there. This is pretty crazy.

A wet spot on the floor kind of put a scare in myself, so you never know inside those lines what might happen.

It’s really annoying for me. That’s not what I’m playing for, to be the face of the NBA or to be this or that or to take LeBron’s throne or whatever.

Honestly, I could care less about other people’s opinions about me.
