My dad's a funny guy.

I got no problem with Nas.

I got a close friend who raps.

My dream is to play in the NBA.

I've been shooting all my life.

I've always been a fan of rap music.

Obviously, I want to be an All-Star.

56 Nights' one of the best mixtapes ever.

Ever since I was a kid I've been rapping.

I like Chino more than L.A., to be honest.

No, I don't get nervous when I play basketball.

I'm not loud. Not gonna be crazy with the refs.

If you mention the Lakers, you think about Kobe.

I write when I get bored, when I have nothing to do.

If you want to be a good shooter, you've got to shoot.

Playing defense out here against grown men is physical.

I was just taught, the team goes how the point guard goes.

Every team I played for, I pretty much been the dude on it.

LeBron and Rondo are arguably two of the best leaders ever.

I like '4:44.' It's a good album. AY-Z's a great, great artist.

L.A.'s a lot of noise and stuff. You always hear cars and stuff.

My dad had me start lifting weights at 12, and for me it was fun.

There's no off nights. When you think it's an off night, it's not.

I played guard my whole life, and liked having the ball in my hands.

I want to be M.V.P. one day. But for me, it's all about championships.

Ain't nobody bumping Nas no more, no disrespect to him. He had his time.

That's what happens when you play in L.A. Everybody expects you to do well.

Obviously if your head coach expects more of you, you bring it to the table.

A lot of people label me as not a defender for some reason. I don't know why.

It's my life, it's up to me what I want to do with it. And I'm realizing that.

I chose to go to CAA. I think me becoming my own man is going to make it easier, honestly.

I've been good at the game of basketball my whole life, so I'm hoping I can get back to that.

Getting on fast-breaks, you don't do that when you let a team shoot 20 free throws in one quarter.

Future put out nine projects in a row that's all hits. 'Dirty Sprite 2' is one of the best albums ever.

With all the pick-and-rolls in the NBA, getting in the lane and shooting floaters or pull-ups will help a lot.

Once you believe in yourself, you can pretty much do whatever you want in my opinion, so that is the main thing.

It gets frustrating when you play basketball for your whole life and then it gets taken from you for a little bit.

It helps me get rebounds, I can see over the defense pretty easily, and yeah, I thank God he blessed me with height.

Knowing some guys are way bigger than you, way faster than you, you have to find other ways to do what you want to do.

Team player, man. It's not just me out there. All five guys got to contribute, and whoever comes in has to do the same.

It is a team game, we all play for each other; obviously we win and lose as a team, but I like to take the blame when we lose.

Man, at the end of the day, it's just a game. And the way I look at it, when I have fun, that's when I play my best basketball.

You've never seen anyone shoot it like me. It comes off the left side. I don't know. I don't know. It still spins the right way.

I think it was tough being a young guy, especially in L.A. All the people looking at you and we had a big responsibility over there.

I know there are a lot of kids who aren't lucky enough to have a father figure in their lives. That's a really tough obstacle to overcome.

Obviously you have LeBron, the best player in the world, all the attention is on him. A lot of the wins and losses are targeted towards him.

Magic Johnson is one of the greatest players to ever play... he's the best point guard to ever play, so I can learn a lot of things from him.

In Chino Hills, everybody is cool with everybody, so I had a lot of friends. My house was kind of the hang out house, where everybody would come over.

Oh, my dad listens to a lot of 2Pac, Ice Cube and WC. That's what he was listening to a lot when we were growing up. He's always been a fan of hip-hop.

NBA, that's the biggest spotlight I've ever been in before. It was crazy at first. I just had to take a step back. Get back to what I know: having fun.
