How much do you think playing alongside a dynamic guard in Darius Acuff in college kind of helped prepare you to play along guys like James and Donovan?

Playing alongside Darius in college prepared me tremendously just because, like, the attention he draws to the basketball when he gets two feet in the paint, when, like, you have to guard him, you have to send another body, or you have to have somebody near him when he goes to the back just because of how... how dominant he is on the offensive side.

So as I learned his game, I knew his game for a minute, but as I learned his game on a college level, it allowed me to just adjust with my game as well, because a lot of attention is on him.

A lot of attention is on me.

So how am I going to get better shots, easier shots, while it's a lot of attention already on the both of us.

So, and I just put that straight into the situation that I'm going to walk into here.

And it's like, those are, it's going to be a lot of talented guards around myself.

uh what last question then we'll let you get out of here and again we really appreciate your time uh you know you're joining a team uh that very much has uh title hopes title aspirations what would kind of define a successful rookie year for you specifically what what what kind of things have to happen for you to kind of end the year and be like yeah that was a good year for me
