QUOTE
“I think I’ve shown teams I’m capable of doing a lot they haven’t seen before. The feedback I’ve gotten, it seems like they’ve been surprised and almost caught off guard with some of the things I’ve shown. So I feel confident in my play and, throughout this entire process, with how I’ve presented myself.”
