NBA DRAFT


June 23, 2011


Tobias Harris


NEWARK, NEW JERSEY

TOBIAS HARRIS (No. 19)
Charlotte Bobcats
(Draft rights traded to Milwaukee Bucks)


Q. Your thoughts about being drafted by the Bucks and also being a local guy?
TOBIAS HARRIS: I think it's a great honor to be drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks. I think it's a great honor to be drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks.
I just feel like it's a great fit for me as a player, coming in and bringing a winning attitude and just a great work ethic to the table. I believe that we have a great organization, and we are on the rise to doing big things in the conference, and being a hometown kid from New York, getting to go to this draft, and being in front of all my family and friends and fans, and get drafted is just a great opportunity and is just a blessing from God.

Q. What are some of the adjustments you're going to have to make from college ball?
TOBIAS HARRIS: Definitely tempo is a lot faster, so I'll just continue to grow as a player and person, and continue to work hard. Defense is going to be a lot harder, so I'm just going to have to really push myself to the limit.

Q. Just explain a little bit about the anticipation while you were waiting for where you finally were going to end up?
TOBIAS HARRIS: There was a lot of anticipation. I didn't really know where I was going to go. Sitting there, you're just really anxious, but I knew God has a plan for me, whichever situation I was going to go to. I just sit there and let that rest in His hands.

Q. Talk about how college ball prepared you for the NBA.
TOBIAS HARRIS: Prepared me a lot. Our team faced a lot of adversity this year, just taught me to continue to grow as a player and person, and just continue to work hard and be the best at what I do. So it taught me a lot and I learned a lot from our coaches and our team.

Q. There is a good depth of threes in Milwaukee, so how are you looking to be able to get some big time minutes early, and how will you separate yourself?
TOBIAS HARRIS: Just come in there and work as hard as I can and just learn a lot and continue to grow as basketball player, and you know, just really work my tail off.
