Oh, yeah, for sure. You know, he looks up to me, everything I did, he followed and I had to set the example for him, not only on the court but also in the classroom and in life. I was three and a half years older. So, he was a lot smaller, not as physically developed. He couldn\u2019t beat me probably until he was like 21-22. And then I don\u2019t think he beat me in a series until maybe like second year in NBA. We\u2019re best friends. And we\u2019re both professional athletes. We always keep in touch. I have NBA League Pass so I can watch all his games. He has a yearly pass for Euro Cup and VTB tournaments. Sometimes he texts me at half time to let me know what he sees during the game and gives advices.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Do you live with regret thinking about your seasons in EL or never have been played in NBA? According to trophies and individual honors, do you prefer your career as a protagonist in your squads instead of a more famous one with less prizes?<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve had opportunities to get into NBA and EL just a timing wasn\u2019t right. But I enjoy my career in Europe, I enjoyed the experience with the role on the team I have. If I\u2019m happy on the court it makes it easier to be happy in life and creates comfort for my family. What is very important is that I started off on a very low level. I was making very small money and I worked very hard with dedication to reach new heights. I kind of made my name. I\u2019ve been very blessed just to play for 12 plus years. Hopefully, I have many more of that to continue on that high level.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
