Some of my best experiences have been at KU and I'm thankful for my teammates, coaches and all the people that support KU.

I'll do whatever it takes to win.

I grew up - obviously I'm from Philly, where Kobe is from, so we grew up idolizing Kobe. He meant everything to us.

Me personally, I'm just trying to be the 'X-factor' that's needed. Whatever is needed out of me, I want to come in and provide.

If you can imagine being with somebody for 21 years and you both get to the NBA and have to split up, and then all of a sudden getting back together, it's unreal.

We need the fans to win games. We need the energy from them to win a lot of games and we need that every night, not just certain nights.

We do our best to compete and show how good we are together. The game is more fun when I have my brother.

I heard the other day that I'm the skinniest power forward in the league. I might be the skinniest, but I'm damn sure not the weakest.

I'll do whatever it takes to win.

I'm watching a lot of film to see what I can do differently, to see how I can help when I get in the game.

I'll contribute any way I can, whether it's cheering my teammates on or being in the game.

Russell Westbrook's just a wild guy.

As I move on to the professional stage of my career, I will always remember my time as a Jayhawk. Playing here has prepared me for the opportunity to have a successful career in the NBA.

A team is more like a family; that's how I grew up.

Once, in third grade, we switched classes and nobody knew until our mother stepped in.

I had a couple great years in Phoenix, man.

Some games are going to be bad. You can't win every game. That comes along with sports.
