We definitely weren't poor growing up, but we weren't rich.

I was definitely an at-risk kid growing up.

I've been a Lakers fan since growing up in Oklahoma. My hometown's finally got the Thunder, which is really exciting, but I've still got to stick with the Lakers.

It's nice to have someone to talk to who knows you and knows the game and everything. Growing up, we played Little League and we were always on the same team. Our dads were always the coaches. We know each other as players pretty well.

I didn't have the easiest time growing up; it's no secret. We were just poor.

Mariah and Whitney Houston were my goddesses growing up.
