"I'm not going to let anyone stop me from achieving my dreams."

"I'm not a perfect person. I make mistakes."

"I will not let anything stand in the way of me and my goals."

"I want to be perceived as a guy who played his best every night, who was a good teammate, who was fair to his opponents."

"My father always told me that you can do anything you want, as long as you work hard at it."
