My mom grew up in Brooklyn.

Everybody's doing well and everybody's achieving their goals so it's great to see Canadian basketball on the rise.

I'll laugh at anything.

For me, I'm more reserved and focused once I get to the game.

I am a big 'try new things' kind of guy.

I've always wanted to make it to the NBA and be on a team, so whatever team drafts me I'm going to be happy with.

I love playing in the Garden. My dad used to tell me stories about playing here. So to see that crowd, it's crazy.

Really I can do everything on the court: pass, shoot, dribble, score.

Who doesn't think that they're the best? I've put in the work and time just like everybody else. So, yes, I do believe I'm the best player.

I embrace New York.

Obviously, you want to do well. As a competitor you don't like not doing well.

I used to come home crying at the beginning, 'cause I was playing against high-school guys, college guys, and I was like in the sixth grade, so it was tough.

I don't care whether I'm in the spotlight, not in the spotlight. That's not gonna stop me from doing anything.

I feel like the Knicks drafted me because they knew what I could do.

Winning a championship, really - that's the main goal, so if you don't do that then you can't really say that you succeeded.

I'm never going to stop believing in myself.

I call New York just a bigger version of Toronto.

I feel I can connect with anybody. I'm definitely a personality.

I'm so overwhelmed, humbled and just honored the Knicks took the chance with me.

As a player you want to be on the big stage.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm a huge Patriots fan, so I like Tom Brady.

I don't like the feeling of 'I didn't do enough.'

Steve Nash is just so smart. He's one of the most down-to-earth people you'll ever meet.

Celine Dion, she's magnificent. She has the voice of an angel.
