New York Knicks forward Mario Hezonja talked about being a free agent during the off-season as well as his presence in the team.

Here is what Hezonja told the New York Post:

On being a free agent during the summer: “I don’t give a s–t that I’m a free agent. I’m trying to help these guys as well. I don’t give a s–t about myself. I’ll be fine. Trust me. I’ll be fine.

With my basketball skill, talent and abilities, I’ll always be fine. I just want to help these guys with stuff I’ve been through in my career in both Europe and here.”

On his presence in the Knicks: “I know it’s a very sensitive situation here with a lot of free agents and a lot of young guys I’m trying to help. If I see something in practice, I try to correct them.

We have to continue to show togetherness and finish on a good note. A lot of teams don’t achieve playoffs they just give up.”
