That’s definitely a nicer way to feel comfortable, if you know they have your back.
In a T-shirt and basketball shorts - that's just my go-to: I'm ready for a workout. I'm ready to go play basketball. I'm ready to go dance. I'm ready to go into the studio.

When I travel around the globe, I try as hard as I can to represent the NBA and the game of basketball to the best of my abilities.

And not just on the basketball court, but giving me talks about growing as a man first, and a basketball player next.
