He’s a lot like Udonis. Quick, “I want to do whatever it takes for this team to win because I don’t soft hands. For his size, he is so light on his feet.

He pays attention to the little things he has to do. From a player standpoint he reminds me a lot more of a Mike Miller because he’s 6-9 and he’s a good passer, good shooter. I don’t know if he has the physical presence that Mike had as a rebounder but I think there are a lot of similarities of how he can pass the ball and make everyone around him better.” -Florida head coach Billy Donovan, Oct. 18, 2002 justin hamilton “I think he is by far the best perimeter defender not in the SEC, but in the country. The ability and the heat that he puts on the opposing teams’ point guards, and the length of his arms and his lateral quickness and his defensive pressure- he doesn’t get enough credit for the things that he does.” -Coach Billy Donovan on February 14, 2002 david lee “He’s playing tougher now.
