“This is a big deal to me. I love to see the smiles on the kids' faces, and by me giving back to the community, hopefully one day they can give back to the community like I did.”
SALT LAKE CITY — Derrick Favors made the assist as he lifted a little girl closer to the basket so she could make a shot during a game of "speed."
"All right, guys. I got you," the Utah Jazz forward said Monday as he rebounded a rogue ball and made a basket for a boy during the game.
Twenty-five kids from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Salt Lake and their chaperones attended a back-to-school party hosted by Favors at the Zions Bank Basketball Center.
