I would not be as successful as I am if I did not play sports because I learned all of it. I learned how to be a good friend. I learned how to work hard. I learned about what's important. I learned to prioritize. I learned -- I probably learned that there is more to life than basketball because I was all basketball.

I deal with young people's goals and dreams, and I don't take that lightly, so I just tell them how it is.
Shoot me straight even if you hurt my feelings. Tara used to hurt my feelings all the time. But I use it as fuel.
I just try to meet people where they are. Not be judgmental. Just meet them where they are.
