"My mom was pretty young, and she did what she could do." — Tavon Austin

One thing I can say is I'm thankful. It's been a long road for me through my injuries.

I wasn't a person to cry or point fingers or find any sympathy.

It's all about patience and I'm sure my time will come. I'm learning what it takes to be successful and I'm doing the things the coaches tell me.

I look at it this way: If the defender gets the chance they'll lay it on you. So for the most part I just try to go out there and bring it to them like they would try to do to me.
