I feel like I grew up differently, when you're a child actor you grow up differently, but it's not that different than growing up as, like, a child basketball player who goes to the NBA. There are certain kids who become professionals at a very young age. There's a lot of sacrifice that goes into that.

Dante Basco

I play guitar, and I'm a decent basketball player - people like to play on my team.

Adam Pally

I took the time to mentally figure out what I needed to do to be the best basketball player I could be for my team.

Andre Drummond

Most of the time, it's easy for us basketball players to adjust to our situation.

Andre Iguodala

It's just something I pride myself on as a basketball player, having that knowledge, being the guy who can go to any situation and make the situation better for that team.

Andre Iguodala

I don't want to be a basketball player that's a businessman. I want to be a businessman that's a business.

Andre Iguodala

I always wanted to present myself well and express my style with my clothes, as well as who I was as a basketball player.

Andre Iguodala

Since leaving cricket, I've tried my hand at professional boxing, a live stage show, and working for TV. I've had some interesting experiences, including working with the former basketball player Dennis Rodman.

Andrew Flintoff

At the end of the day I'm a basketball player. I'm going to try and shoot more threes than mid-range or long twos or whatever. But if someone gives you a shot, you're a basketball player, you got to make reads and play.

Andrew Wiggins

My parents thought I was crazy. When I graduated, you didn't hear of basketball players going to Japan. Everyone went to Europe somewhere.

Anne Donovan

I just feel like I'm a basketball player. I don't really have a position. I can play inside. I can play out. So whatever a team needs, I think I got it.

Anthony Bennett

I'm just a basketball player going out there and trying to get wins.

Anthony Bennett

I'm a huge LeBron James fan. I love The Heat. He's an incredible basketball player.

Ashley Bell

I don't know what position Scottie was; he was just a basketball player. He could dribble, shoot, pass and rebound. Defensively, he was excellent. He had quick hands and quick feet with a great understanding of the game. He could do it all.

B. J. Armstrong

So much has been said about Michael Jordan as a basketball player, but when I played with him, the Michael I knew was just Michael. I guess more than anything is that I got to experience the human side of the so-called gladiators, warriors and heroes that we worship.

B. J. Armstrong

Every now and then you have to be a little nasty, a little aggressive on the floor. That's part of being a basketball player.

B. J. Armstrong

My whole childhood I grew up wanting to be a professional basketball player.

Becky Hammon

But really, I've worked my whole life to become a great basketball player. When I see that jersey go up, I'm sure I'm gonna have flashbacks to when I was 4 and 5 years old playing in my driveway because I loved it. I still love it to this day. It's been one of my first loves in life: basketball.

Becky Hammon

If we can take young people who excel at the highest levels, put them on the same kind of pedestal as the all-state basketball player and the all-state football player, and begin to get the same kind of recognition, it will have a profound effect, and we are finding that it does.

Ben Carson

As a kid, I always idolized entrepreneurs. I thought they were cool people in the way that I thought basketball players were cool people. It's cool that some people get paid to dunk basketballs, but I'm not one of those people.

Ben Silbermann

I've never allowed my political life, or my life as a basketball player, to define the totality of my humanity or my personality.

Bill Bradley
