Using sign language, he praised his parents and said he carried his family and the deaf community with him. He said,
I would not be here today preparing for the NBA draft without my family. My grandparents are deaf and My mom grew up CODA. They taught me to see deafness not as a disability, but as an indeitity, as caulture, as strenth. Through them I’ve had the privilege of meeting remarkable Deaf and hard of hearing people in my life. Now basketball is my platform. And through it, i carry my family and the Deaf community with me. I;m honored to bring the attention, repsect, and opportunities they deserve. I’m so proud to partner with Galludet University. True Champions for Deaf people around the world.
