I'm going to be me, regardless of anything.

You don't have to be the biggest, tallest, strongest guy to do whatever you want to do. You can do anything. There's tall doctors, short doctors. It doesn't matter. You don't have to be the tallest guy to play the sport of basketball, football or whatever you want to play.

Honestly, Coach is great. He's like a father figure to me because he's so hard on me. Growing up, my dad was always on me. 'You've got to do this, you've got to do that.' But at the end of the day, I love my dad. I love him to death. I'd do anything for my dad. That's how it is with Coach.

I love for the crowd to feed off me, and I try to make my teammates feed off me.

My mom is probably the only person shorter than me that I'm scared of. Still to this day. She's, like, five-two, maybe.

My dad said, 'Stay humble, and you gotta work harder than everybody else.' My mom said, 'Always be yourself.' She always told me only God can judge me.
