“I think I'm very personable. I create relationships with all my teammates.”

“I never thought I'd be an elite college basketball player, let alone an All-Star, Olympian. That confidence faded over time, and when it came back to me, I just ran with it.”

“I want to be an All-Star, plain and simple.”

“The in-season tournament is probably the first time that I'm really competing to win a championship on the NBA level.”

“Any time you get love from legends and the ones who came before you, it means the world.”

“I pride myself on winning basketball games, so that's my biggest thing is I just want to win.”

“I'm not a loser, it's not what I do.”
