“For me, I don’t want to cheat the game by saying, or kind of doing lip service by saying, I want to be the greatest ever. I want to be able to show it.”

I can’t jump the highest. I’m obviously not the biggest, not the strongest.

When I step forward on the floor, I have the confidence that I’m the best player playing that night and that I am the most prepared at what I need to be doing.

I expected to be a pretty good NBA point guard and hopefully win a championship. But MVP and all this stuff? Not really.

I’ve been blessed in that regard through and through. So I’m just thankful for this opportunity to play the game that I love and share that with the world.

I am pretty chill before games. Have a go-to routine that keeps me busy until we are ready to take the court so I’m not just sitting around anxious for the game.

You have so much fun playing games. We all love basketball, so we never want the season to end, ’cause then it’s five months of sitting around and watching the playoffs.

I like that Brita makes tap water taste good, so you don’t need to spend money or waste plastic with bottled water.

FaceTime helps me a lot. I feel like I’m at home even though I’m not.

Your touch and your feel for the game is pretty much gone if you don’t work on it – at least get some shots up or dribble the ball.

I know what I do for my team and what my teammates expect of me on both ends of the floor.

I’ve taken countless shots in my life, so you know the ones when you’re in rhythm, with a perfect release, and it’s on track, that it’s going in.

I know the blessing of having a dad who played 16 years in the league. That experience, and seeing him as an example, let me know that it’s possible. It’s not easy, but it’s possible.

Whatever that means, however you got on that mountain, why not try to climb it? And do it in your own way.

I shoot the ball so well that sometimes you fall in love with it and think it’ll get you out of certain situations.

To be able to finish opportunities that I do get in the paint, that makes a difference.

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.
