If you rode to my mother's house, it's still a two-bedroom house, one floor. She still drives the same Toyota Corolla that she drove for the last three years and is still trying to meet ends. So for them to say I received $30,000 or whatever the case is, I definitely don't think that's enough to sell out myself and my family.

Sometimes in the NBA, the schedule gets to be a lot with all these events, busses, planes and games. But once that's gone, you miss it so bad.

I've just been eating, sleeping basketball.

Obviously a strength of mine is shooting.

This is a job to me. Hopefully, it's a job that I can do for money one day. I love this game.

I think it's a great thing that players have to go to school for at least a year. I think it definitely helps you in the long run.

I was telling some of my friends that I really wish college did pay because then you have an opportunity to have fun in college and enjoy college life and have a comfortable living.

What's the average time you live on earth - like 60, 65 years? Basketball's gonna take up half of it. I'd like to be successful in the other half, too.

I'm just looking forward to going out there and getting the opportunity to show that I'm a starting guard in this league and I can compete with the other starting guards in this league and compete at a high level.

I just miss being around my mother. I'm her boy. I'm a momma's boy.
