To me, defense is a mental attitude it takes will and heart to go out there and lock your man up.
You have to get yourself psyched up because you never have a night off defensively, especially at my position.
I don't regret not coming out early. A lot of people felt that I could have been a lottery pick, but we'll never know.
I'm just a skinny kid from Maywood trying to do my best. I never took anything for granted. I never wanted to come off like some kind of big-headed, conceited athlete.
What am I most proud of? That, as a man, I've made my mom proud. Not just in basketball, but away from the court, too.
It's always good to go against your friends, especially when you come out victorious.
My thing is, I want to play basketball, I would enjoy playing in the D-League, but at the same time I don't want to take an opportunity away from a young guy to get exposure. I'm still thinking about it.
I prepare myself in the summer to play 48 minutes. It's not a logical goal, but that's the way I prepare.
