ESPN tells the inspiring story of Jason McElwain, an autistic teen who worked as manager of his school's varsity basketball team. In the final home game of the 2005-2006 season, coach Jim Johnson had McElwain suit up, and with 4 minutes to play and a comfortable lead, let him play.
McElwain went on to score 20 points in the final 3 minutes, 12 seconds of the game, going 7-for-13 and 6-for-10 from three-point range, and was the game's high scorer. Very cool story.Wednesday, January 28, 2009
