00:00In a sense, you've been unleashed, I mean,
00:02into the starting lineup, getting way more playing time
00:05now here for the back half of the season.
00:07How do you feel about that in terms of what that means
00:10for you to get more opportunity
00:13and what that says about your development
00:14in this year's rookie season?
00:18I mean, you know, I think everybody was surprised of,
00:22you know, at me not playing in the beginning of the year,
00:25but, you know, you have to gain the coach's trust.
00:28That's what I feel like every coach.
00:30And, you know, and I feel like me and Coach Donovan
00:34just been building a relationship
00:36throughout the season.
00:38And, you know, it's been going great.
00:41So the opportunity-wise, you know,
00:44I knew it was going to come.
00:45You just have to work hard and stay prepared.
00:48How do you respond to coaching?
00:52Are you more likely to respond to somebody
00:55being tough with you, riding you a little bit,
00:57needling you?
00:58Or are you more responsive to,
01:02hey, hang in there and more positive reinforcement?
01:10For me, it doesn't matter how you coach me.
01:14It just matters that you, you know, stay on me
01:16and it doesn't matter how you deliver it.
01:19It's just, you know, it doesn't matter if you yell,
01:23if you're saying it.
01:25I'm always going to respond to coaching.
01:27You know, it doesn't matter if you're yelling
01:30or, you know, saying it in a quiet manner.
01:33So for me, I'll adjust to whatever coaching there is.
