This will be your second stint with the Legends. What made you want to come back after a couple years away? Rashad McCants: I'm pretty much embracing the opportunity to get back in the swing of things and get another shot at the NBA. A lot has happened. A lot has changed for me personally. I think I'm more ready now than I ever was physically and mentally to make the necessary adjustments no matter where I play. ... Just growing up, going through life, being a man.

You last played in the NBA in 2009. How hard has that been to accept after you came out of North Carolina with so much fanfare? Rashad McCants: The first couple years it was very difficult, especially not being able to understand why. As I found more of a spiritual peace, I stopped worrying about the whys and the what-ifs and making excuses for myself. I've accepted where I am. To get over these hurdles, I've just got to be persistent and play my game and then the doors and the windows will open. ESPN.com

You had the rep early in your [NBA] career that you were hard to play with. What's your response to that sort of talk now? Rashad McCants: I honestly don't know what to say to that, because [there's] never been a clear understanding where it was coming from. There was this stigma on me, but I don't know who is saying it or where it comes from. The only thing I can do is be the player I've always been and the teammate I've always been. ... For me, I really can't address the things I can't control. The only thing I can do is go out there and be me. ESPN.com

The Powerade Tigers, after a 0-2 start in the PBA Governor's Cup, are looking for a spark to jump-start their campaign, and replacing former NBA player Rashad McCants as their import for the conference might be just the thing. Powerade assistant head coach Charles Tiu confirmed to GMA News Online via text message that the team was "looking for a replacement" but declined to share details about whom the team was pursuing. McCants, the 2005 NBA Draft's 14th overall pick, started for the Tigers when they lost 97-83 to the Petron Blaze Boosters last week, and 106-101 to the Barako Bull Energy on Friday.
