    Q&A

    What tunes get you in the mood for action before you head out onto the court?
    "Heavy rock music does it for me every time. On the team stereo we usually belt out a few tracks by My Chemical Romance and some anthems from the Rocky soundtracks to get us all pumped up for a big game."
