His numbers in high school didn't lie. And then you start coaching the kid and he's so smart about the game. Those are the kind of kids we have to find to have a moment like this.

Hopefully, they'll start showing up on time. Showing up late to things is not the way to do it.

He's playing smarter than he has in the past. Kyle's made himself a little bit better athlete. He's been in great shape the whole time, which he needed to do.
