Feelings towards another losing season that has added to a 16-year playoff drought
How he felt playing alongside center Domantas Sabonis
His thoughts on wanting to build a winner in Sacramento
Reflecting on Alvin Gentry’s time as head coach
Would he want to be consulted during the front office’s coaching search?
