00:00I love shooting in Chase Center. I mean, I've been lucky enough to set records

00:06here and have incredible memories, so I try to tap into that every time I'm

00:19the number 11 jerseys and seeing the young fans and seeing how much of an

00:24impact I was able to have while I was here makes me incredibly proud of what I

00:28was able to do. As far as regular season wins, it's gotta be up there, but it was

00:35just, I mean, I just wanted to take that moment for myself because I spent a lot

00:41of days in here, especially when I couldn't play, and to see Rick Celebrini,

00:51took that moment for myself because I worked so hard to get back to this, to
