Yeah, I mean, it's been pretty easy, you know, Malick, Aday Mara, Morez Johnson, they're really versatile. Out players, you know, they're all athletic, all pretty fast. Aday Mara, like I was saying, he's a really good passer and he's willing to pass too. Malick and Morez Johnson, lob threats, you know, it's pretty much you get the best of everything, you know.

So me, I don't really have to do as much banging in the paint. They got it, you know, and if they need me, I'll be on the 3-point line, you know, just in case, you know. So it's been nice to have that, you know, have that versatility.

Man, I've been really confident in my shot this year. Me and Coach Mike Boynton been in the gym after practice every day getting extra reps, you know. Roddy Gayle's been joining me as well. So it's been amazing, you know, just having that and the confidence that I have now is something I've never had before. So it's been really great.

Well, at UAB, I pretty much got force-fed the ball, you know, just take every shot pretty much, or just run everything through you. This year, it's not really that much of a load, you know. I get to sit back in the corner. Elliot Cadeau makes a play for one of us, Roddy Gayle, Mara, you know.

I'm just moving without the ball as well, which is great, you know, for me, you know, just learn the game of basketball outside of being that main guy, you know? So it's been, it's been great for me. I've been adjusting pretty well as well. Really nothing to complain about. Just, just gotta figure out where to be and the right time to be there.
