I'm going to be able to contribute. But I hope to do whatever I can to help the team out, not to just come in for shooting. Whatever I can do to help out, I'll do. Because, obviously, basketball is not always going to be here for me. I have to have something to fall back on.
Education always comes first.
That's just how I was raised, and I think that's how it should be. Definitely organization, time management, and attitude all play a big role in being a successful student. And at the college level, no one's telling you what to do. You're supposed to attend classes, but you have more freedom, so you need good time-management skills to be able to schedule in practices, classes, and study time. Being on my own for the first time, having that control was a little bit of a challenge for the first few weeks.
