00:00We were talking about this event for two weeks. I was really excited to come here and just see what's going on here.
00:08And then there's a lot of good things that's happening here. That's why I'm really happy to be here.
00:14Why did you want to see basketball and art interact with each other?
00:18I think there's a really good connection between basketball and art.
00:22I'm not a big guy to go to every museum to see everything.
00:27But today I wanted to come here and also support this event and see cool things.
00:33That's why I was like, this is fun for me.
00:37It's actually an honor. It's cool.
00:40I didn't know a simple picture could look so cool in an art exhibit.
00:44Being a part of that photo shoot was pretty dope.
00:48To see the final picture that the photographer picked.
00:51I'm like, wow, that's me.
00:53When was that done?
00:55The photo shoot was done on an off day.
00:58One of those light days.
01:01He asked me what I do after practice.
01:04I said, won't you come join me?
01:06That's what I did.
01:09Is it cool to see basketball and art interacting like this?
01:13Most definitely.
01:15It's two different worlds.
01:17But to see them come together.
01:20You see art really showcasing the expressions of a basketball player in that artist's mind.
01:26It's cool to see just the animation.
01:29Not only the photography, but the drawing, the paintings, things like that.
01:32This is how artists see the game.
01:34Of course, we see it from a different way.
01:36But to see it across is pretty cool.
