(Sports) Phoenix Suns Sign A 12 Year Old To One Day Contract

IFWT_suns

So the Phoenix Suns are one of the worst teams in the NBA this year, so what. What they did off the court yesterday is worth much more than winning or losing. The Suns signed 12 year old Jonah Zahm to a 1-day contract with the team. He had a jersey with his name on it, he took part in practice, and even met the media just like a real player. This was setup with the Make-A-Wish foundation. Jonah suffers from an extremely rare seizure disorder. He has to take about 15 pills a day, just to limit the seizures, but it does not prevent them. I am a sucker for stories like this. I love when athletes or teams do things for people out of the goodness of their heart. Turns out Jonah might have some skills too. During practice with the team, he hit 8 shots in a row! The Suns are so bad, maybe they should just keep him on the team.
