MUST SEE Pro Basketball Team Signs 5-yo Boy w Leukemia to One-Day Contract - The Good News Network
The Utah Jazz signed 5 year-old JP Gibson, who is suffering from leukemia, to a one-day contract and brought him on the court to play with the big boys.
On their NBA website, the Utah Jazz announced Monday that the team signed the little boy from Layton as free agent guard. (They chose not to disclose his salary.)
An adorable video shows announcers and players getting into the spirit as Gibson takes the court for an intra-club scrimmage.
“When he was just over a year old, he would sit with my husband Josh watching games,” said his mom, Megan Gibson. “He started insisting on shooting hoops for an hour each night before bedtime when he was just 15 months old.”
“He knows he has to be six before he can play Junior Jazz, and he reminds us all the time that he can’t wait until he’s six.”
