Sam's mother, Ora, said helping a teammate is how her son has always been. That's the way she raised him. “I always told him when it comes down to basketball, you go for everything you know,” Ora said. “After the basketball game, it's over. Stay competitive in that arena, but when the game (over), be a good human being.”

“Tough times don't last, but tough people do,” Grooms said. “That's the big quote that I stick by when people go through anything.”
