As a kid, I’m talking six years old, it bothered me when something?felt like a weakness. So I worked really hard on my left hand at that?age. Specifically, I would brush my teeth with my left hand; I would?write my name with my left hand. I hated the feeling of being?uncomfortable.

That’s how I looked at it on the court, too. That’s why I felt it was so?important to be able to use both of them equally. Whether dribbling?or shooting, pivoting or spinning, it was important to me that I felt?comfortable with either hand.
