Earlier in my career, I just wanted to be an entertainer.

Sometimes it's good to be ready for the unpredictable. I'm glad that I can go through unpredictable situations. It's a good thing.

I got bullied so much at 11 and 12 that I became the bully. I didn't want to get bullied no more. And that just carried on through my life.

I was top-10 once upon a time in this league, and I took a quick drop-off. Like, that's just not normal.

The panda is a funny, lovable animal, which defends its territory well. It's strong but calm. It suits me perfectly.

Changing my name was meant to inspire and bring youth together all around the world.

Far Rockaway is like the New Orleans of New York.

I just try to make sure, in everything I do, I do what I'm supposed to be doing in a confident and a humble way at the same time. It's been working for me.

Opinions are very easily heard in our media and technology-type of world that we're in. I just try to stay focused on the people that I'm around every day that I work with, that I trust and value.

Both of my grandmothers are aging well, and my mom is, too. I've got some good genes.

It's crazy, it really is, to just be fortunate enough to continue to be in positions to win, to be playing well, to be healthy.

I enjoyed practices at college. That is where you really get down and dirty and really get some development and see what you have.

I'm a basketball junkie. I watch basketball all the time.

Most of the time I'm really not aware of what I am doing. I'm just so locked into the moment.

Sometimes when you're young and a little more immature, you can overdo things or not really have your legs under you.

I take an approach of focusing on characteristics and qualities that I want to be as a teammate and the numbers will take care of themselves.

It's tough, but you can still find joy in the struggle. Going through a season with a lot of struggles, I got a lot of practice. You have to set yourself up for joy, give yourself the best opportunity to have that going on inside.

You need to be able to find joy in something that requires so much of yourself. I have to have that deeper meaning in my work and in my everyday life.

I'm just going to continue to make good plays. Making the right decisions, good decisions with the ball so my team can play with a great flow.

Trying to fit my strengths with my teammates' strengths, utilizing everyone to the max, is really fun to watch and really a fun way to play.

I'm fortunate to be a player who can do a lot of things well. Not everything perfectly, but several things well.

The most satisfying way to play basketball is when you can get the best out of everyone on the court.

Eating cleaner has helped me with recovery, to keep my body in position to play as many minutes as my team needed.

In this journey there is so much to my life that I just do privately... I don't really make it a huge priority to tell every single thing that I do every single day about my life.
