Eric Gordon has roots tracing back to the Bahamas. In addition to several of his relatives currently living there, his mother was also born in the islands. It’s not surprising, then, that the Houston Rockets guard has decided to open a fundraiser to help the Bahamas following the devastation of Hurricane Dorian.
Gordon has donated $50,000 and hopes to raise even more money for Bahamians, according to Jenny Dial Creech of the Houston Chronicle. Not only is this a generous deed, but it’s also a classy move, considering the fact that his family was luckily unscathed by the storm.
