I don't necessarily view myself as a big - I view myself just as a player, someone who can go out there and contribute to the team from any position.

It's amazing, the things you learn, the experiences you go through, the feeling of being like a rock star that goes with being a University of Kentucky basketball player. Just the ability to feel fame for the first time - that's something Kentucky gives you.

Anytime someone expects something from me, I expect about five times more from myself.

Never get too high; never get too low.

I'm an Eagles fan since I was young. I'm always going to stay loyal to my team.

Especially when you're a leader, you have to do the things that aren't the popular choice. But that's fine, you have to be able to make those decisions, without a doubt.

Great teams, you see players working off of wavelengths. Telepathic, not even actual physical things.

You've got to win. You've got to win to be respected in this league.

I've always loved myself, always.

I always have a motto: if it's going in-and-out one night, then the next opponent should be worried.

My rookie year was so much easier, and it was so much shorter than most rookies due to the fact that I had KG. That changes everything. I was blessed to have the opportunity to play with KG - not only learn but play with KG. Not many people in the NBA are able to say that.

I live my life very Amish-like. Other than video games, I don't think I have a reason for electronics. It's a life that I've always loved.

I think people are going to be surprised at how long my legs are compared to my torso, and my arms as well - I am a very lanky fellow.

It doesn't matter to me where I play. It matters what you do at the place you play at.

You never think that you're going to be in the NBA but be an All-Star as well.

If we play defense the way we're supposed to and we play defense the way we do here in practice, we should have no problems against most of the teams in the league, and other teams, it'll be a great fight.

I've been a dedicated 'NBA 2K' fan since I was young, and being selected as the face of 'MyNBA2K17' is an incredible milestone this early in my career.

When I was on the chubbier side, I thought that whatever God and whatever my body told me to be at that time, that's what it was. I'd say I grew more of an understanding about my body probably around my senior year in high school. I understood my body physically as an athlete.

I thank God every day that I get a chance to do all these great things in a Timberwolves jersey.

It's amazing what video games have obviously done for not only the industry and for entertainment but for the world and social interactions.

I take what the defense gives me, and I roll with it.

Many people are in need of new shoes.

Anything I put my name on, I make sure I put my 110 percent towards it.

I ain't no quitter: I'm a competitor.
