Hollis-Jefferson: Loving life in Brooklyn — and Fashion Week

Nets rookie Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will be providing a recurring diary to The Post as he begins his NBA career. This week, he introduces himself to the fans in Brooklyn and looks back on his first NBA training camp. As told to Tim Bontemps.

The biggest thing for me is being able to give back to the community, whether it’s my community in my hometown of Chester, Pa., or the Brooklyn community. I’m big on helping people know there’s another way, and there’s a means to something.

I feel like that’s another purpose for me on Earth besides being a great basketball player.
