00:01Steve obviously is a pioneer for Canadian basketball.

00:07He started the whole thing, I guess you can say,

00:11from the way he plays to the way he carries himself

00:15to his approach to the game.

00:18I learned so much from Steve being a 17-year-old kid

00:22in two weeks at a time.

00:24That helped me get here for sure.

00:26The things he's done with Canada basketball in a whole

00:28and just pushed the culture forward has been amazing.

00:31And then to win a title on top of everything that's happened this year

00:34would be special.

00:35I've said this so many times, but I don't play for the individual stuff.

00:39I don't play for anything else besides winning,

00:41and I never had my whole life.

00:46When I was 20 years old, I played to win an SEC championship,
