I follow players more than specific teams. My all-time favorite player is Allen Iverson, but my favorite player in the NBA right now is Steph Curry and I really like WNBA's Sue Bird's game.
What kid of music do you listen to?
I like to make hip-hop beats and also gospel songs.

I would have to say the World Cup because I like soccer. If I didn't play basketball, honestly, I would play soccer. I was a forward and loved to score.
