I'm happy to be playing so close to home. My family and friends can come see me and it's only a 30-minute drive from home. I'm also grateful to have the opportunity to play.
I think we're playing harder because of what David went through. Whenever he came back to school, it just gave everyone a boost. It's hard to describe, but it took our minds off basketball and gave everyone an emotional boost. He inspires us in everything we do.
