I played point guard my whole life.
— Zach LaVine
I'll always have something to prove.
I like to get a salad or fruit in me - just some good energy food - and then a plate a pasta with a breast of chicken.
I can't drink anything but chocolate. I don't even like any milk but chocolate. When I eat cereal, I barely touch the white part.
There are going to be good days and bad days... and you have to learn to fight through that.
I have confidence in my game. I can get up and run the floor to the best of my ability, and above all, I'm going to play my hardest.
My mom, Cheryl, worked two jobs to support me. She really helped the family stay together.
I feel like people who know me, my fans, I want them to know I'm just a regular 21-year-old kid who likes movies, who likes to have fun. It lets people see the other side of you and not just the basketball thing.
I never thought I'd be an actor.
If I wasn't a pro-athlete, I would probably eat any dessert dish every day!
I'll forget what day it is sometimes. I have to look in my calendar every once in a while.
I've always been taught that hard work doesn't fail.
I'm very humble.
Michael Jordan was that guy - he was Michael Jordan. So whatever he did, we followed.
It was a big-time change, coming off the bench.
If I get to spoil myself, I'm going to DQ. I always had it growing up, so I stick to it.
I can create for others.
You can never take a day off, because there's an All-Star on every team.
I just feel like whenever the team needs a bucket, I can come and get it. I feel I'm a really good scorer.
My dad, Paul, is, like, my best friend.
It's always good to be known. You want to build your brand up, want to build your name.
Let's just say the genes were there for me to excel athletically.
I usually start my day with a light breakfast of fruit and eggs and take granola bars with me to eat after practice. Lunch and dinner usually consist of chicken over pasta or rice and beans.
I've been on my grind to be the best player I can.
Kris Dunn is a very athletic point guard.
I feel like I've accomplished everything I could in the dunk contest. It would be hard for me to go back and outdo myself.
I love the game of basketball. I guess it started with 'Space Jam.' Right after that movie, I went out there to my little Flight hoop and tried to do every dunk in the movie.
I always had confidence in my game.
I put Tabasco sauce over everything. Or I put it on pretty much anything that wouldn't taste gross - I mean, I wouldn't put it on salad, but I like it on fried chicken, nachos... a lot of stuff.
I went to a lot of college camps when I was younger... You just admire those players because they're at a higher level than you at that time.
I have really high expectations for myself, so I just want to go out there and compete.
Kobe Bryant has always been my favorite player, and he was drafted No. 13, too, in 1996.
I remember when I was in third grade, I was in a classroom, and the teacher said, 'What do you want to do when you get older?' We were going around the room. I said, 'I want to be a professional basketball player.' She's like, 'That's not realistic.' I thought to myself, 'OK, watch.'
I've never been a shy person. I've always been able to talk pretty well.
Watching game film motivates me a lot. It shows me what I need to work on and determines the specific workouts I do.
I grew up playing basketball and baseball. I've always been active because my dad played professional football, so sports and working out have always been a part of my life.
Every year is pressure. You need to put in on yourself to go out and perform.
My ultimate goal is whenever I go on the court, I just want to be known as one of the better players.
