David Booker Quotations

We knew they were going to sag on me, so coach (Brain) Brooks told our guards to hit some shots.

We've had long layoffs earlier in the season. It didn't affect us then, and this won't either. I'm ready to play and bring a gold ball to Moss Point.

The record is an accomplishment that I'd never thought I'd have. I thought about it midway through the game, but the record doesn't mean as much as winning a state championship.

Breaking the record means I've accomplished something and won't be forgotten at Moss Point. I didn't think about record until mid-season when I had a shot at breaking it.

Scoring all of those points doesn't matter. All that mattered to me was winning the game. Our guards set me up all night and kept getting me in position to score.

This game had a great atmosphere. I'm glad we came out with a win. And I helped the team win.

This is just one of many good stretches for me. Coach told me to set the tone for the team. I think Jeremy (Stewart) and Cortez (Burnett) have done a good job of setting me up with good shots.

I am not looking at this game that way. It's an honor to get selected. I want to go out and win my last high school game in Mississippi.
