'Don't use your talent and be average.' "You have to have talent. I can't give a player talent. That's something you inherit. It's a gift. Don't use your talent and be average. Your talent is a gift - don't waste it. Average doesn't win. It's excellence."

“If you want to be successful, you need to be bad. Then you need to be good and when you are good, you need to fail. When you fail, you’re going to figure it out. There is a process. There are steps you need to fill. There are no shortcuts, it’s a journey,” Nikola Jokic
