Obviously I want to be able to protect one to five. I have the feeling that I am able to protect one to four now. Obviously I have to get a little stronger.

About how Nil influenced his career: “I think it's something that is beautiful for the game. Many people should have been paid for before, many people who had a very big impact on the basketball game, but I think it's a nice thing. If they play a game and are paid on an earlier level, it is something that they do not take for granted.”

In the case of underestimated designs: prospects: “I have the feeling that there are a few people. I think Myles Byrd.

On the interview process: “I think it's a great experience. It is such a unique experience. Not many people have the opportunity to be here. First of all, I'm trying to use everything in the moment. Just appreciate every opportunity I get. It is a great experience to be able to go to the room, to answer questions.

About the progress of his shootout: “In the course of this year I spent a lot of time with TJ Benson, Rem Bakamus. They accelerated my shot great.

On his favorite NBA player ever and at the moment: “All times I will go to Bryant and Tracy Mcgrady, and then I will play Devin Booker, Jayson Tatum and Kyrie at the moment. They all play with the simplicity of the game. All these boys that I broke off, I think Jayson Tatum really simplifies the game. shoot.

He is a clever player, he makes some three, so he is so difficult to defend. And I think Duke did a great job to take measures to have disadvantaged her as a defender. They put him in places whether the elbows were a trailer at the top of the key, where you had to help. And as soon as the campaign met, they had to make a decision. It was definitely hard to protect him. “

Why did Arizona's trainer want to accelerate his shot: “For the consistency of it. I think it is something that plays a big role in having a consistent shot. This performance creates through its whole body. By accelerating my leg work, I was able to get my legs and feet under me so that I can have a fluid leap.”

When his shot felt of course and the work that went into it: “I have the feeling that I always had the natural feeling of shooting the ball, but the consistency came into the middle of the season when the conference game came. It was something that we worked every day. I came three times a day. The last training of the day was all that was shot. One of our managers. At Arizona, Arizona did great work and in the second hour. me to take pictures.

How interviews with teams were: “It was amazing. I am a guy, I am a child who has just dreamed of being in this position. Like in my head, if you only said the eight -year -old carter that he would be in this position.

Which meetings were: “It was a lot of everything. I mean, I had teams in which I had to draw on a board and they wanted me to draw one or two games. I had teams in which they only ask me more serious questions. I had more informal conversations with teams. And I have teams in which I look at film and they wanted my thought process to be played through games.”

After getting to know teams: “Yes, of course. They want to be surrounded by a good group of people and people who believe in them. As much as they learn about me. I learn from them, only take my mental notes and things of this kind. Obviously I cannot decide where I go, but only to understand that they remember the names of people. Well before others.”
