    Yeah we need to get @Clutch on this. He can maybe see if the team is willing to sell us a game jersey with his name on it.

    If they donate it we can pay to get it nicely framed and shipped.

    I passed this along to the Rockets as well. It would be great if they could send something to the family.

    The Rockets have reached out to his family.

    If you want to donate, I think we should research the best donation site for his family.

    Reached out to Clutch. Might start up the GoFundMe and trying to get it stickied on top of the forum for a few weeks. Would like to order the custom jersey and see if we can get the Rockets team to sign in and get it framed and send to his family with “Peter Wang : Forever a Rockets Fan” on it.

    Makes me kind of sad reading this and thinking about that tragedy, but this is a great idea and I'd like to contribute once we know where we are donating

    Peter's obituary mentions his affection for the Rockets:

    "He liked the Houston Rockets, hip-hop music, playing basketball and spending time with his friends."
