We have to try to make the game better than it was when we came in.

We have to give back. We have to try to grow the game.

This is what you do your routine for, so when playoff basketball comes, it helps you stay fresh, sharp, energized, strong - all that.

Confidence is a huge thing in this league.

If you miss 10 in a row, you have to believe the next 10 are going to fall for you.

You have to play your game in this league.

I don't think smaller guys usually bother me on my shot too much.

It's just using my size. On the defensive end, it's using my length to disturb the smaller guys. On the offensive end, if there's a post-up advantage, I can take it.

If I stay patient in the offense, shots will come.

I've got the mind-set that I'm going to play as hard as I can, and I'm going to make the person guarding me work as hard as he can.

I've had to change my game a lot - try to play the right way, try to do the right things, try to be the glue guy for the team for the most part.

We have to do what's best for the team.

A hamstring is definitely nothing to play with. There are chronic hamstring injuries where guys think it is fine, and they go out there and try to run and pull it again.

The ultimate goal is to win a championship.

From Day 1 since I was in middle school, it's just to get better every day and not settle for anything, try to get better, try to improve, and try to stay hungry. That's not going to change.

I'm definitely active in the community down there in Charleston.

Just working on stuff off the dribble a lot more. It's helping me create my own shot and freeing me up a little bit, being able to make plays and make shots.

I've always been trying to add stuff to my game.

My parents always told me be confident but be humble at the same time.

I tried one tiny piece of kangaroo, which I never thought I would try, and it was actually pretty good. I probably wouldn't eat it again, but it was still pretty good.

When you look the wrong way to cross the street, you've got to be careful with it.

There aren't any negative thoughts about my time in Detroit; I just didn't play. Sometimes you have to go through that at different stages. I went through it during a tough period, my first year in the league, but it was a good year for me off the court.

I think mid-range shooters are hard to get to a lot of times. Guys are going at you all the way to the paint or looking to swat it at the 3-point line.

I was born and raised in Charleston, SC.
