“He’s extremely tough, man. Tough. His ability athletically, what he’s able to do, is amazing. As long as he stick with it, he can be special in this league. He do a lot of great things on both sides of the basketball and you can see his confidence getting better and better every single game. So, I think the kid definitely gon’ be special.”
