â–½Kirk player comment
"This is one of the happiest days of my families and my life. Basketball has taken me all around the world and has brought me to my home here in Japan. I’m humbled and beyond excited to be a Japanese citizen. I want to say thank you to all those who have supported me in this journey and I hope I continue to make you proud. Without my family and friends none of this would have been possible. Can’t wait to watch my family grow here in Japan"
