What's the most common question you got asked by teams in Chicago during the Combine? Keba Keita: I told them I just really keep it simple. The way I play, I'm an effort, energy guy. It doesn't matter what team I'm on. I am going to bring the same energy, the same mentality, the same effort, on the defensive end. On offense, getting the offensive glass, giving my team second-chance opportunities. That's what I told them. My game's not really complicated. I just really play with a ton of energy and effort, so I think I can play with really anybody, and on any team, because I don't need to score to impact the game. I’m not trying to limit my game, but I’m also trying to improve certain areas, so I can stay in the game longer, too. When it comes to free-throw shooting, ball handling, not like crazy crossovers and all that stuff, but like a decent keep-and-go or just like transferring the ball... I just feel more comfortable in those areas. Being able to make those quick decisions off the pick-and-roll, or just short rolls. And my touch shots, most people don’t know, I mean those [draft] workouts, I do those touch shots, but I haven’t been placed in a situation where I can showcase that stuff.
