This season was an opportunity to learn and grow. Emotionally, all the losing was draining, but it helped me grow mentally learning my role, how to play and letting the game come to me.
Nothing has changed with me. I'm still the same competitor who won two gold medals with USA Basketball, won AAU tournaments and state championships, and was on the No. 1 team in high school basketball. I'm going to keep doing what it takes to win games, diving on the floor for loose balls and making 50/50 plays. I can defend every position and [I've] improved as a facilitator quite a bit playing with other great players.
Holland's season was cut short by a ruptured tendon in his right thumb, forcing him to miss the Ignite's final 19 games. He nevertheless finished as the second-leading scorer in Ignite's four-season history.
The NBA elected to disband the G League Ignite program moving forward, something Holland said surprised him. 'I don't know why that happened,' Holland said. 'Ignite did a lot of good for young guys. I didn't see anything wrong with the program.'
