I developed my game a lot and learned how to score off the dribble. I learned how to play team defense and one-on-one defense.

Heading into college, I was mainly just a spot-up shooter.

I got to work on my body, kept working on my game, and also just got to learn out there from the guys who are playing. Getting stronger, working on my upper-body strength, lower-body strength, just trying to get stronger.

Anytime you fall short with someone you've been with the whole time, you always ask yourself or ask the other partner, 'Can we do this?'

I think Giannis can be a LeBron-type player, like an all-world, Hall of Famer, MVP, legend, one of the best ever. He's doing the right things to put himself in that situation. I think he will get there.

Giannis is truly a student of the game. He listens to the coaches, they show him film, and he's always in the gym working on his game and trying to find ways to get better.

We have to play a complete game.

We can't take quarters, minutes, plays off.

In the month of December, it was my ultimate mission to find and honor the special people in my cities and provide them with experiences they would never forget.

We had a lot of close games; we were losing games. Failing in those opportunities - when the game was close? And we needed a bucket or a stop? I wasn't able to come through. It's just... something that you get comfortable with as time goes on. You're OK with failing, as long as you're trying as hard as you can.

Now, I'm not afraid. Or getting myself down about missing shots or missing an assignment late. The game goes on. You've got another chance. That's definitely a mental thing.

You can't stop great players. You can only make it tough on them.

I think LeBron is the best player in the world, as far as overall in his career and what he's doing for this league on and off the court.

It feels good to hit a shot; that's something you always dream about as a kid.

You've got to play hard every minute you're on the court.

If we want to win, we're not going to be able to go out on the court and say, 'My turn' or 'Your turn.' We're going to have to play together and sacrifice some shots, some ball touches, some minutes.

I really wasn't a good defensive player at all.

I know at times I'm going to have to just take the 3-ball when it's there instead of trying to get more to that midrange. But the midrange game is definitely one of my strong suits. I can't give that up.

I was a three-star recruit, went to Texas A&M, and no one really talked about me there.

My parents are still here in Charleston, and I have a lot of family here, so it's great to be back.

I love challenges.

It's good that other teams want me, but I'll be more than happy to stay in Milwaukee.

Nothing has ever been given to me.

My main improvement on defense has just been my coaches. They've been teaching me defensive schemes, how to guard guys, and how to use my length.
