Before WOLLMAN, JOHN R. GIBSON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.

Kashaun L. Lockett appeals his conviction, following a jury trial, for conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of a mixture containing cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), (b)(1)(A), and 846. Following his conviction, the district court*fn1 sentenced Lockett to 120 months imprisonment. On appeal, Lockett challenges the sufficiency of the evidence presented by the government in support of his conviction, the district court’s denial of Lockett’s mistrial motion premised on a claim that the government’s questioning of one witness was improper and highly prejudicial, and the district court’s denial of his Batson*fn2 challenge to the government’s use of a peremptory strike against a juror. We affirm.
