00:00 >> All right, the second day we've been talking to you,

00:03 you've been sticking out the past two days.

00:04 What's it like to kind of just get to your confidence and just showing overall skill?

00:08 >> My teammates, where to find me.

00:11 We share a ball a lot.

00:13 We got a good group first day.

00:15 >> So in terms of keeping a positive momentum,

00:20 I also get the instruction from the staff and coaches.

00:23 You play such a good game.

00:26 >> It's different, truly different.

00:29 They know how to break the game down to different segments, different areas.

00:33 Basically, they dummy the game down.

00:37 They know how to make it make sense to all of them.

00:40 They use the high terms and help us understand it in our terms.

00:45 >> Absolutely.

00:46 >> How important is it, we have the legacy role in football.

00:49 We have all this stuff from HBCU football players trying to get their shot.

00:52 I feel that the NBA has this gift,

00:54 now that Blackhawks basketball players can get their shot too.

00:57 >> Man, it's great.

00:59 I'm honestly thankful that they are doing it, giving us a chance to be out there,

01:04 get looked at more.

01:05 I appreciate it.

01:06 >> All right, man, last question for my end is,

01:09 now that the camp's over, what is something that you're looking forward to

01:12 as you progress into your season?

01:14 >> Man, taking back some of the things that I learned back to my teammates,

01:17 to help us have a better season this season.

01:20 >> Last question for me, three Texas Southern guys here, yourself,

01:23 PJ Henry, Colby Granger.

01:25 You guys made the NCAA tournament last year, it was a really good year.

01:29 What's the next step for Texas Southern basketball?

01:31 [BLANK_AUDIO]

01:34 >> The next step?

01:36 Man, we just, I don't know.

01:38 It's a great environment back home.

01:42 We all want it for each other.

01:43 I feel if we keep it that way, keep taking the coaching out of Coach Johnny Jones,

01:48 we'll be fine.
