1. What is the best part about being a rookie and your season thus far?
It's your first year as a pro, so it's a dream come true. I have had the opportunity to be around great veterans, great coaches and I have met a great friend in Eddie (Johnson).
2. As a rookie, what goals do you have for the playoffs and in the offseason?
To help the team in any and every way they need me. What they need, I'll give. I just want to help win.
3. We know that you are close friends with Eddie Johnson, what is the best advice he has given you?
He told me that it's a long season. Halfway through the season things were not going my way or how I would have liked them to. He told me to stay positive and work hard. He said we have a great coaching staff. It's a long season of ups and downs; don't get too down and don't get too up. I listened to that and I have been able to finish well.
