Q: “How has the meaning of basketball changed for you after playing for arguably the best university in the nation?”
A: “A lot of things have changed, first of all I come from a small public school in Mississippi and to be a part of the biggest stage in college basketball it provides a different outlook. I always knew I loved the game and I always wanted to be around it, but that really allowed me to get in touch with my love for it being around it all day everyday … it becomes a part of your life.
