    How is it giving back to the homeland if they're charging a price?

    Only support their own once they are winning. Few months ago after being dropped by LA the amount of people that was calling him down especially after the BVI all star it was so shameful. Few weeks ago it was made public he’s with the Spurs and all of a sudden everyone is riding his d***. People are so weird.

    75.00 per child is not giving back, in my humble opinion.

    Boss you still aint learning focus on your career spend your summers training and fine-tuning your abilities and leave these bad-minded people alone at least for now.

    If everything is for free, then its a big hand clap. Even if he had say bring $1.00 you people would have a problem with it. People value what they pay for. Do it for free and half of who register will not show up, or show up when they want. The camp my son attended cost me nearly $400.00 for 5 days (not in BVI). Yes he is giving back of himself, but everything is not free. If he was doing a private camp he would charge 3 times more. You people big up others when it is at your own convenience and pull them down when they don't let youall walk on them. dangerous community.

    When these atheletes, (whether track and field, basketball or any other sport) get injured while training and playing and sacrifice their private lives and sometimes families to push themselves to excel, none of us out here take the physical pain and emotional agony for none of them. But when they throw a foul ball, youall stay home in your beds and couches and blog all kind of stuff as if they are machines. Why don't some of you go out there and take their place and see what the reality is like.

    The title is misleading and could be doing him a disservice by not being accurate and claiming a roster spot that he does not have. Several players are invited to NBA summer league teams, that doesn't make them NBA players. It is a spotlight for fringe players to get seen and possibly find a job somewhere. I think it's only about 15% of them that get signed to a bench role, the majority play overseas & g league.
    That being said, it's good for him to teach what he knows. But this community pressure on him to be an NBA player needs to stop and let him develop and help the next guy get drafted directly into the league

    Always amazed by some comments from persons. Giving back is not always about money. He could have stayed away and never do what he is doing. His presence as a professional basketball player has value way beyond a dollar. He represents opportunity, inspiration, motivation and hope to those young players that will be around him. See the bigger picture! ????????
