How do you motivate yourself before the games?

Listen to music! 

What kind of rituals you have before the games?

I'm not as superstitious as I used to be, so all I need is a good nap, a good meal, my music and I'm good to go!

Do you have anything you dislike about basketball?

I hate warming up... I wish I could just go to practice and games and be ready to play! But with age, I need a good warm up and stretch before I can start playing haha.

In your eyes, what's the difference between men's and women's basketball?

They play above the rim, they're more athletic too so that makes it more entertaining to watch. But I think the women's game is evolving and most of the time, women are more fundamentally sound.

Have you done any other sports besides basketball?

I grew up playing softball, I even played 1 year in college too. I think I got burnt out when I was younger, and basketball is a much faster pace sport... Rarely a dull moment!
