"I just felt a calm and a peace that had to be come from the woman above (his mom). I felt like a kid. It was just fun out here. It felt like I was a kid getting ready to go play my Saturday AAU games and Sunday AAU games. In a way I felt like I was seeing her in the stands"

Nickeil Alexander-Walker on when he realized SGA was special growing up:
“The thing with him that stood out to me, he didn’t get emotional with the game. He was very consistent in like ‘bro I know I’m gonna make it no matter how bad it is right now.’ He just stuck to his work. He would watch film of like Steph or Kyrie and the next day implementing it in our workouts… For me I was frustrated with the game. I used to get so mad… But he never wavered. That’s why now to this day people see the calm and the aura that they talk about. He’s been that way his entire upbringing of basketball. He just had faith in it and whatever happened, did it suck to him? Yeah but he had so much emotional control that it never wavered”
