No matter what the circumstances, you always enjoy being around guys that you bond with, win, lose, whatever it may be.

If I have the ball in my hands, I'll make a play. If don't, I'll try to get in position to make a play. I think that's what it comes down to.

I can control how much work I put in for me to be consistent.

When I was in L.A., the structure wasn't up to par as I wanted it to be.

When you're not the Steph Currys or the Kyrie Irvings of the league, long-term promises are irrelevant.

It's easy to be just a basketball player, get paid and come here to do that. But to be professional about it is different.

There is a lot of extra energy with being in a Lakers uniform.

I consider myself a trendsetter.

Everyone in the league has a journey or a legacy, whether you're in the league for five years or you're in the league for one year.

If I miss 20 in a row and coach tells me to keep shooting, that's what I'm going to do.

I want to learn how to stick around this league. I don't think there's a cheat code to it. But the sooner you find it out, the better you'll be.

There's a lot of spoiled Lakers fans.

I can't be funny, goofy, happy go lucky all the time.

It's hard to come off the bench and be ready all the time.

I wasn't really a fashionable guy in high school.

It's always good to be a trendsetter.

I always had the confidence. The platform, guys getting injured and giving me multiple opportunities, that has allowed me to showcase it.

I want to be me - and people know it's me. I don't want: 'He's trying to act like Kobe' or 'His answers are like something Kobe would've said.' Nah. If it's me, I'm going to say it.

You look good. You play good. That's a true statement.

Yeah, I consider myself an unpredictable player. A player that's flashy here and there and then is maybe conservative here and there and I think when it comes to dressing, it's me figuring out that balance of when to be flashy or when to be super simple with maybe flashy shoes.

If you have your own taste, you know what looks right and what looks good on you versus someone kind of telling you what looks good on you.

I wing my style. I think it's definitely something on how you feel, the weather, that plays a part.

I'm part-time vegan. I try to be vegan when I can. But I dip and dive in everywhere.

I hired a full-time chef, so I wasn't taking that time to order pizzas or eat Wild Wings or stuff like that. I travel somewhere, I'm gone for a long period, I have a chef. I think that elevated my game.
