“It doesn't matter where you come from, what you have or don't have, what you lack, or what you have too much of. But all you need to have is faith in God, an undying passion for what you do and what you choose to do in this life, and a relentless drive and the will to do whatever it takes to be successful in whatever you put your mind to.”

“Most home teams have chapels, so when I'm on the road I'll probably go to their services.”

“Drinking water is essential to a healthy lifestyle.”

“In college, a loss is pretty devastating. That feeling kind of goes away in an 82-game season. You hate to lose, but you also have a lot more games to make up for it.”

“I'm 6'3" and 185 pounds on a good day, so I probably relate more to the casual fan who watches the game and is not super athletic, not this crazy monster of physical stature.”

“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.”

“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.”

“We're not going to go 82-0 and blow everybody out. We are going to be challenged.”

“People have told me, 'You shouldn't bring your daughter onto the podium, 'cause it's the workplace,' and things like that. But I'm not gonna really listen to that. I'm gonna do what I think is fun for me and my family, and everything'll be all right.”

“Shooting the ball is a part of the game. Everybody can shoot in their own way. Not everybody can make. But everybody can shoot.”

“You can play fast but not in a hurry. As a point guard, I can dictate that.”

“I won't have to do any major changes to continue my career a long way, hopefully. Just hopefully stay healthy and be able to help a team out as I go through and still play at a pretty high level.”

“When I moved out, my mom and dad came to help me get settled into my apartment - a place I ultimately got hooked up with in Coach Nelson's building. We had to figure out how to get all my shoes over here. That was a little stressful.”

“I try to make it look easy, but the behind-the-scenes stuff is the challenge.”

“I hope to play until I'm, like, 38 or something, and that's a lot of years in the game and a lot of travel and a lot of sacrifice on my family's part.”

“I have certain guys who I looked up to. Jordan, Kobe, those guys. Passing that on to doing my part to kind of keep that influence of basketball where it should be is kind of why I play the game.”

“I'm just blessed, man, to be able to represent solidarity with the small schools I went to.”

“Playing basketball all my life, I've collected a lot of different basketball shoes. It's pretty much all I wear.”

“FaceTime helps me a lot. I feel like I'm at home even though I'm not.”

“Obviously everybody, if you're playing in the league, you've got to have somewhat of an ego about how you play the game.”
