A biography for Roy Hibberthasn’t been written yet.
“I am deeply indebted to Georgetown University and the basketball program for all they have done for me.”
“Well, I had always been a fan of 'The Office' and thought the mockumentary style of the show was hilarious. So with 'Parks' taking the same approach, it drew me in right away.”
“My favorite guy is Ben Schwartz. We've become really good friends.”
“I was letting the lack of touches on offense really affect my defense.”
“I root for good, clean basketball.”
“I'm an only child and grew up in a bad neighborhood. My parents weren't well-off, but they would save up to get me video games. Games were something I did because I couldn't really go outside where bad things were going on.”
“So if I'm on the court or on the bench, I'm just going to support my teammates, no matter what.”
“I said to myself, 'What show could I be on that makes sense?' And with 'Parks and Rec' being in Pawnee, like a fictitious city in Indiana, I said 'that really makes sense.'”
“I had some rainy days, I didn't handle those rainy days. I walked out without an umbrella sometimes. I'm going to be more mentally prepared for my downs, because there are going to be ups and downs.”
“I actually reached out to my agent about appearing on 'The Good Wife.' The main character of the show went to Georgetown and that's where I played my college ball so there's a small connection.”
“I'm not going to make every shot. I'm not going to get every block. I can't let one play affect me the next two or three times down the court.”
“Anybody who probably lives alone and they have three or four cars, that's probably somebody that's spending a lot of money that they don't need to.”
“I'm more of the lone wolf.”
“I feel like I haven't done the best in environments that aren't conducive to me doing well, and I have to do that. Because times are going to get tough, and I'm going to have to let things slide off my back.”
“Indiana wanted to go in a different direction, wanted to go younger, and the Lakers wanted me, so I said, who wouldn't want to be in L.A? That was a no-brainer.”
“I've been called Hasheem Thabeet more times than I can remember going through an airport.”
“I wanted to play for a coach who actually played in the league if I had my own choice.”
“I'm good friends with Tim Duncan.”
“I make sure I keep everything tight, checking on my bills. Going to restaurants, I make sure if I have a coupon, I use it. I try to live like I'm a normal person.”
“If I see someone with a gamer tag saying they're fans of the Bulls or the Heat I will trash-talk them and make it known I don't like them, but I don't let them know who I am. If I do, I have to change my gamer tag pretty fast.”
