Q: How would you describe your mentality coming off the bench?
A: I see myself as scorer, shooter. I can be a facilitator, so my mentality is come in and if we're struggling, (bring) instant offense.
Q: Does being considered undersized motivate you?
A: I love to prove people wrong and be the underdog, and that's what really motivates me.
Q: Do you think your playing ability surprises some people?
A: After games coaches will come up to me and they'll just tell me 'great job.' You can just tell by their facial expression that they didn't think I would be able to go out there and do (what I just did).
