Being a gym rat is not the only thing that helps you. You also have to be mature and treat basketball like a job. Over sleeping and being late to team meetings or practice is not going to go over well with your head coach. Missing the team plane for a road trip regardless of the excuse is unacceptable. Sometimes immaturity gets in the way of development. I think the money has gone to AJ head a little, but I think he will be okay. He is only 20 years old hopefully one of the older guy's on the team will rub off on him.
