At the end of the day, you're only going to be allowed to play basketball for a short period of time. You're a human other than that for the rest of your life. So it's safe to say that basketball doesn't define me. It's just a sport that I was blessed to play.

George Hill

My mom used to be a basketball player so I was really into it. Plus of course my height made it easier for me to decide what kind of sport I wanted to play, so at the age of nine I went to my first basketball practice.

Zaza Pachulia

I just go out there and play basketball. I play basketball the way I'd play if I was at the park. There's no motives with me. I'm all for the team, and that's how I play.

Patrick Beverley

My father was a basketball player, so I loved basketball because he did. It was a direct transference. But, more than that, basketball, in the United States at least, plays the same function that soccer does everyone else in the world. It's the sport of poverty. It's the sport born of poverty. It's the cheapest sport.

Sherman Alexie

As a player all you can do is play within yourself, even in the context of a team sport.

Jerry West

I'm just playing basketball. I just want to be a great player. That's it. That's all I'm thinking about. If the other stuff comes, it comes, but I'm just fortunate to play in the NBA Finals and just to play basketball, period.

Kawhi Leonard

I play guitar, and I'm a decent basketball player - people like to play on my team.

Adam Pally

Basketball is sort of an interesting sport that, you know, the top player on your team makes so much more of an impact than the top player in any other sport.

Daryl Morey

At the end of the day I'm a basketball player. I'm going to try and shoot more threes than mid-range or long twos or whatever. But if someone gives you a shot, you're a basketball player, you got to make reads and play.

Andrew Wiggins

No player in the NBA was born wanting to play basketball. The desire to play ball or to read must be planted. The last 25 years of research show that reading aloud to a child is the oldest, cheapest and must successful method of instilling that desire. Shooting baskets with a child creates a basketball player; reading to a child creates a reader.

Jim Trelease

I just feel like I'm a basketball player. I don't really have a position. I can play inside. I can play out. So whatever a team needs, I think I got it.

Anthony Bennett

I would be a basketball player, play at Duke, go to the Golden State Warriors, play with Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, Draymond Green.

Mason Ramsey

To not only be a cancer survivor, but to return to the sport of boxing, because, I mean, this is not basketball, this is not baseball, this is not a sport you play. This is a sport where you can die in the ring. So it says a lot to me to come back and be a world champion in that aspect.

Daniel Jacobs

Jeb Bush admitted that he smoked a notable amount of pot in school. He said, 'You would too if your parents had named you 'Jeb.'

Conan O'Brien

When you play a team sport all your life, you need to get out there sometimes and show some individualism in a sport where you play against the nature.
