Growing up, we talked about all you have is your last name. That's what people will remember you by and that's how people know you. You have to do everything you can to not blemish your last name.

I wish we could do a better job of understanding what we're doing to kids, because it can be better. It's unfair to give up on these young black kids. We don't do that to white kids.

At the end of the day, I believe we can all work to foster a spirit of compassion, understanding, and awareness within our communities.

I'm conscious to know who I am as a young man and what I want to be off the field and how I want to impact other people.

I see myself as an utterly unchanged Perth dude who likes sport as much as I like music and who just likes my family.

Denver is home to me, and to be recognized for my achievements in the sports community here is a great honor.

Basketball was always my sport. It just took me until my second year of college for me to realize that I was a better baseball player than a basketball player. But basketball was always my number one love. Finally found out I was better at baseball and chose to pursue that route.

Sport is my passion but I have a way to go.
