There are so many things going on in this world that are unbelievable. A lot of gun violence and police brutality.
I'm low-key. I like my privacy.
I'm about working, getting better, and proving people wrong.
I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer. I just work hard.
I'd rather be the underdog than anything.
I know I'm small. But I don't feel small sometimes. I feel like a giant sometimes.
Of course, I've been a Knicks fan growing up, always rooted for the home team. But I really can't see myself in a Knicks jersey - only because I've been in one jersey.
I try to work hard each and every day to become a better player.
It's very important to inspire the next generation.
A few losses won't hurt anybody.
I've always felt like I'm a winning player. Like I deserved it to be in the playoffs - to be battling.
Charlotte means a lot to me. This city has embraced me - allowed me to be who I am, allowed me to grow as a man.
I'm from a rough place: the Bronx.
My dream is to get to the NBA, obviously. But it will be when the time is right.
I work hard each and every summer, each and every day on my game to become a better player for my teammates, for the organization. Hard work always pays off.
You see guys who are on elite teams. I don't want to do that. I want to create something special here in Charlotte, something that we have never had here before. I want to create some consistency.
This is a special class right here, to be an All-Star in the NBA. I don't think anybody would have thought when I was coming in the league that I would get this accomplishment. This is special. I don't know where I would rank it, but it's definitely high on the list.
People think of the Charlotte Hornets, and they think of me.
I just really, really hate being cold.
I'm pretty shy, believe it or not.
