I prefer playing tough teams. It's going to make me better.

I watched a lot of great players come through Memphis.

When I'm running and I think I can't run any more, I also think that my dad can't run at all, and it keeps me going.

My dad is a great role model.

Hey, the Clippers are a good NBA basketball school. Helps out all the young guys who come into the league. It's not a fast team, not like a real NBA team. All the players have to worry about is improving on their own. You are there for your first few years. They teach you a little bit about the game, and then they let you go.

All I ask is let me practice the position I'll play.

I can play four, and I can play five.

I need to be challenged so I can get better.

I know I'm good enough to be a starter and I'm a much more productive player when I get starter minutes. But I don't have to start. That's not me.

I'm always talking about getting playing time. If I don't do anything about it when I do get the opportunity, all that talk is about nothing.
