Who would you compare your game to?
“I am really trying to get like Kevin Durant because he plays really well inside and outside.”

“Dwyane Wade. I have liked him since I was little and I think he is a really good guard, does some fancy things and he is No. 3. I love the Miami Heat.”
What is something our fans would be surprised to know about you?
I like to play video games. Grand Theft Auto V.
If I took your iPod from you right now, what would be playing on it?
“Probably some R&B or some hip hop. I like Trey Songz, but I don't really listen to him a whole lot anymore. Sam Smith.”
Favorite Movie
“Wizard of Oz. I have watched it like a million times since I was little. I used to have the VHS. I used to watch it every day. I love the characters.”
What has been your favorite moment in basketball?
“The summer, I think it was my sophomore summer, I wasn't in the game. I was on the sideline with an ankle injury, but we were down by one and my teammate she came off and shot the buzzer beater from crazy far and everyone in the gym went nuts.”
Why Oklahoma State?
“I have always asked my dad to take me to Oklahoma. He never did, so my coach asked if I wanted to go to an Oklahoma school. He asked if I would like to go to with orange and black or would I like to go to that other color. I said orange of course, because it is my favorite color. I liked the campus when I got here because it was beautiful and my teammates are awesome and I love our coaching staff.”
What was the fascination with Oklahoma?
“My dad lived an hour away in Oklahoma City. He used to always tell me stories from his past with his brothers and I always wanted to go out of town.”
