I told my mom I would graduate. I owe that much to her and myself.

When I step on that basketball court, I'm thinking about basketball, I'm thinking about winning - but there's so much that goes into thought about how I'm going to open this game up to others. It's so much more than just basketball.

I was born to a single mom and raised by her and my grandparents.

Reggie is a (great) block-out guy and Ruben will go down there and battle. Sometimes, the ball just seems to fall right in my hands.

Tonight we stuck to our game plan which was to get out in the open court. We just needed to get back to playing basketball and having fun.

Yeah, I think that was the best of any big shot I've hit, most likely. I didn't have nothing to do, but to shoot.
