Good to see there are people who care more about their fellow man than a game. Great story!

A little spark of compassion in a world full of darkness and despair, that was.

Great story. I hope that kid who lost his mom gets a scholarship somewhere.

Such a moving story, especially, to me, the part where he shows up there to be with his second family in his darkest hour and then to have such grace shown him by his opposing teammates.

That was a great story. When I read the headline about missing free throws and good sportsmanship, I thought it was gonna be another one of those BS not running the score up stories. I was pleasantly surprised.

Oops, don't know know what I did. Trying to edit teammates to be team and must have duplicated it.

I cried too!!

I love hearing these kind of sports stories. It's so refreshing especially after all the over paid, egomaniacal, self absorbed pro athlete stories you always here about.
