00:00 a 12 game road trip to give you guys a chance to get to know each other?

00:03 >> No, it's huge.

00:05 And not just a 12 game road trip, but

00:07 to be in a whole other environment, a whole other culture.

00:11 I know some of the guys have maybe been to the Middle East before, but for

00:14 the majority of the guys, it'll be their first time.

00:16 So especially for the young guys, to learn about a new culture is super important for

00:21 their growth as human beings.

00:23 But to do it with this group, we get to share kind of one of those milestones in

00:28 life, so that plays a big role, whether you believe it or not, on the court.

00:33 So it builds camaraderie, chemistry, trust, understanding.

00:37 Learning together is huge, so we're gonna do a lot of that in camp in terms of Xs

00:41 and Os and how to play with each other and meshing on the court.

00:44 But learning together in life is very valuable as well.

00:48 >> Will you guys lean on Luca a little bit more when you get to Madrid since he's-

00:52 >> Yeah.

00:54 >> [LAUGH]

00:56 >> He knows his ways, man.

00:57 He knows his way around.

00:59 >> You've been all over the world lots of times.

01:01 Have you ever been to Madrid?

01:02 You ever been to Abu Dhabi in particular?

01:04 Because I know you've been to Slovenia and you've been all over the place.

01:08 >> I've actually been to both of those places this summer.

01:11 So it's been a whirlwind summer, been a busy summer.

01:14 But yeah, I've been to Madrid a few times, beautiful city, fun city.

01:18 Was there this summer briefly, and I've been there before playing.

01:24 And I haven't been to Abu Dhabi in quite some time, but

01:28 I've been a big, many visits to Dubai, and it's right there.

01:31 So I'm driven over for day trips.

01:33 >> As big as you are, have you ever been on a camp?

01:36 >> Have, yeah.

01:38 Very, it's quite an experience.

01:40 The offloading is the most difficult.

01:43 Cuz they kinda do this kneeling thing, but it's worth a try.
