I join other players in calling for all teams to take a stand. We should not be subject to hate speech or racist acts at any time, and definitely not in our arenas.

I've seen guys who had the craziest amount of talent growing up and let that hype and whatnot and the money go to their head.

Everybody asks me if I've always been a sneakerhead. No. I was never a sneakerhead until I had the money to be a sneakerhead.

I have so many special memories from the camps I went to when I was growing up.

I was the lead recruiter at Louisville. I think I signed four or five guys before I left.

It's pretty cool to see the people I'm reaching throughout the entire world. It's special.

It's not like I'm the lead actor or anything. But it's really cool to be in a Steven Soderbergh movie.

I want to be the best teammate I can be, the fastest learner, the hardest worker, and just go out there in any way that I can help in each game.

We play with guys who don't care who scores the most, who rebounds the most... We play with guys who genuinely want to win.

It's been like that my whole life. AAU to high school to college, I've always responded when people get on me.

We're putting Utah in a different light. I'm glad to be a part of that. We're all glad to be a part of that. My friends want to come here. When I was a kid, that wasn't the case. That's where I'm trying to get Utah to. I want people to see what we have because it's a great place.

I'm focusing on the day to day and all the accolades will come.

I never expected to be in the NBA, to be here, let alone to have my own shoe in my second year.

If you do happen to get a scholarship or get a few offers, don't choose the school that is the biggest school. Choose the one that's right for you. Go somewhere you're needed, not where you're wanted.

Growing up, my mom used essential oils in our home, so I've always noticed the benefits and now incorporate them in my daily routine.

During the season, I'm always locked in one gear, ready to play basketball, always keeping my guard up.

My mom raised me.

I didn't think I was going to be drafted, to be honest. I'm so serious. I mean, wholeheartedly, too. I don't know. I didn't realize it, probably, until about a week and a half, two weeks before the Draft.

You never know when this can be gone. It's sad to say, but with all the injuries around the league, it can be gone in a blink of an eye.

I have a tendency to freak myself out.

Everybody likes to look at the end goal, but when you sit back and reflect, I played on Team U.S.A. That's incredible for me. I think that in itself is amazing.

It's easy to give back to people who are so genuine and kind.

I'm from New York. You walk by, you bump somebody and they give you a look. There's always an attitude.

I grew up around a lot of the major leaguers, guys like David Wright, Pedro Martinez, Jose Reyes, and I think that's what really helped me. You see the routine they get, the humility they have.
